Description: Charming exploration of historic and contemporary printed textiles with images of children and childhood and fabrics related to children's clothing.
L'exposition « Il était une fois… L'enfant et le tissu imprimé » explore la thématique de l'enfance à travers les collections du Musée de l'Impression sur Étoffes de Mulhouse. Les pièces présentées révèlent l'évolution, sur plus de deux siècles et demi, du regard porté sur l'enfant. Au XVIIIe et au début du XIXe siècle, les toiles d'ameublement représentent des enfants à l'intérieur de scènes littéraires, historiques, allégoriques ou dans de simples illustrations de la vie quotidienne. Depuis plusieurs décennies, les designers textiles créent des dessins ludiques et colorés pour le plus grand plaisir des retailer enfants. Hier comme aujourd'hui, ces textiles du quotidien apportent un témoignage précieux sur leur époque : ne reflètent-ils pas les valeurs éducatives et morales transmises par les parents à leurs enfants, les idéaux qu'une société offre à sa jeunesse?
A note regarding condition: All of the costumes and textiles that I sell are vintage and have typically seen decades of use resulting in expected wear and tear that add to the history and authenticity of each piece. In case of above-average wear, I will mention any significant damages and heavy signs of use. Depending on the age, materials, and condition, I often hand-wash more durable, colorfast cotton and linen textiles, but embellished garments, heavier wool pieces or items made from silk or fine fabrics are sold in the original, unwashed condition. Small holes or stains, missing sequins/beads, worn trim, and other marks related to standard wear are common and do not detract from the value of most pieces. Please keep in mind that a vintage textile or garment in very good condition might still show signs of use, storage and age.
Not sure about the condition? Need more photos? Sure! Etsy allows up to 10 photos online, but I often have more images available so please send an e-mail request for more.
I am located in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania (USA) and local shoppers are invited to view or try on items in person before buying.
