This print showcases a stunning reversible coat for a woman, originating from Western Sinkiang, Yarkand or Kashgar before 1869. Crafted with meticulous detail using silk and cotton, this garment is a true testament to the artistry of the Central Asian School. Measuring at an impressive 141x220 cm, this coat is currently housed in the prestigious Ashmolean Museum at the University of Oxford in the UK. The museum's Robert Shaw Collection proudly displays this exquisite piece that exemplifies both Eastern art and textile craftsmanship. The intricate patterns adorning this coat are nothing short of mesmerizing. With its vibrant colors and delicate design elements, it effortlessly captures the essence of Asian fashion and style. The robe's warp ikat technique adds depth and texture to its overall appearance. This photograph not only celebrates the beauty of this remarkable garment but also serves as a reminder of how clothing can be an expression of culture and identity.
