PREFERRED TERM
Style of Jean Revel
DEFINITION
- This style refers to those fabrics that follow the decorative and design line of Jean Revel. They are characterized by flowers, fruits and sometimes naturalistic architectures, with many shades of colors. Their designs are usually mottled with large fruits and leaves, arranged rhythmically and with movement. It was the forerunner of this technique where the designs seem to have a large volume thanks to the shadows it creates with the gradations of color that range from the shadow to the intensity of the light.
