Textiles have a long and distinguished history on the Indian subcontinent, from the dazzling woven silks worn by royalty to the simple block-printed patterns worn by the masses. Drawing from the Victoria and Albert Museum's world-class collection, this beautiful and informative reference features breathtaking and varied textile designs, techniques, and colors.

Each piece is examined in detail through close-up shots of the fabric and patterns, and demonstrates different weaving techniques, allowing readers to see precisely how the textile was made. Divided into three chapters by pattern style--"Floral," "Figurative," and "Geometric"--each chapter comprises an introduction to the style's history along with its intended use.

This authoritative volume overflows with distinctive colors and patterns to inspire and inform the reader about the history of Indian textiles and patterns, their intended use, and the methods by which they were made.

Fotheringham, Avalon: - Avalon Fotheringham is a curator in the Asian Department at the Victoria and Albert Museum. Her focus is on historic and contemporary South Asian textiles.
