18thc Toile de Jouy panel, Homage of America to France
An 18thc toile de Jouy panel, copper plated in blue on white cotton calico. The pattern is ‘Hommage d’Amérique à la France’ by Jean-Baptiste Huet. This textile panel dates to 1783-1789.
The print celebrated the alliance between France and America in defeating the British in the American Revolutionary war. It shows allegorical figures among palm trees with ships in the distance.
We’ve shown it with a card mount to give an idea of how it would look once framed.
Size : 19.5 inches x 15 inches / 49.5cm x 39.cm
The panel is in excellent condition. The only stains are around the edges and are due to a previous framing.
