Circa 1815
Manufacture Haussmann Alsace
Amazing Orientalist scarf printed on a wooden board on silk pongee dating from the early nineteenth century. Definitly from the Manufacture Haussmann 1815 with documentation. Very strong polychrome of vegetal colors with superposition of yellow on blue to obtain green. Repertoire definitively Orientalist in allegory of motifs in chinoiserie, palms, temples, Russian churches, parades of Chinese and European characters in costumes of the eighteenth century. Astonishing Matrioshka wearing a kokoshnik blowing on the greenery and definitely Russian flowers...
