There's a bit about block-printing and roller-printing on Wiki, which is actually fairly reliable [always a nice surprise with Wiki which can be dodgy]. Also it depends where you want to start. You can get heavily involved in the block printing of fabrics for wall hangings and bed hangings of the 17th century, which were often printed with glue and sprinkled with flock or colours for a pattern through to the revival of hand placed wood blocks by William Morris and the Arts and Crafts movement - and that's only taking western europe into account Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03121102757759349165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1054099993321713428.post-9011631742886000262019-01-18T03:04:50.119+00:002019-01-18T03:04:50.119+00:00Nice blog.

I knew about the Indian textile painting tradition, but I had not realized that it was a technique being used by the Western Europeans..and I'm wondering: does the technique of cloth printing contribute, to any degree, to the technology of printing more generally?? And how many of the dyes that you are aware of are coming from the Levant and the Far East as part of the spice trade before 1500?? I know that alum, a key "mordant"--didn't know that word, thanks!!- was being mined in Chios, but were there other chemicals being used in cloth decoration?<br /><br />Thanks for this fascinating post!!<br />Clio1792Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1054099993321713428.post-26024085126862999912011-11-28T04:21:39.252+00:002011-11-28T04:21:39.252+00:00Fascinating information, Sarah!
