[Imprimés en tous genres, No. 2]
This is a French sample album of printed and woven textile swatches, compiled by the Paris firm E. Lemancel in 1865 as a trade catalogue for buyers and manufacturers. Its pages hold pasted-in cloth samples in navy, red, and brown grounds, with floral sprigs, stripes, plaids, and dotted weaves; a designer can take from them the period's repeat layouts, tonal pairings of flowers on dark ground, and simple stripe and check structures.
