Lyon à l'Exposition universelle de 1889
Lyon à l'Exposition universelle de 1889 is a trade showcase published in 1890 by Adrien Storck, printer and publisher, in Lyon, presenting the city's silk industry to visitors and manufacturers at the Paris world's fair. Its photographic plates reproduce silk fabric designs: a green damask-like brocade with scattered blossoms and bouquet panels, a woven ornamental damask with scrolls and foliage, a painted pink floral sprig on a striped ground, and a heraldic medallion with a sailing ship on a foliage border, which a designer could draw on for period damask, floral repeats and armorial textile motifs.
