Turkey Red
Bloomsbury Visual Arts (Verlag)
978-1-350-21651-8 (ISBN)
This book explores the arc of the Turkey red industry, the evolution of the process through key producers and technical developments, the complicated printing process, and finishes with an examination of significant Turkey red collections and a selection of object case studies. The chemistry of the process is described in an accessible, contextual manner, highlighting the significance of the distinctive technique that yielded the best red attainable on cotton.
Drawing on both historical and contemporary study, Turkey Red presents significant new research on the material characterisation of this fascinating, eye-catching textile, and offers an in-depth historical example of the global effect of textile consumption.
Julie Wertz is Beal Family Postgraduate Fellow in Conservation Science at Harvard Art Museums, USA.
