    Russian printed cotton kerchiefs of 19th - the beginnings 20th centuries(p. 1)

        The collection of printed cotton kerchiefs of the end 19th - the beginnings of 20th centuries in Sergiev-Posad museum belongs to number of the fullest in Russia. It totals more than 300 items, providing notion about activity and art possibilities of the leading centres of cotton-printing manufacture of Moscow and Vladimir province. Kerchiefs with the printing brands have special value; they allow establishes the place and sometimes the times of their manufacturing. These are products of the Moscow factories of A.Gyubner, P.Kotov, associations of the ‘Trehgorhaya” and Danilovsky manufactories belonging to Baranov, Posylin, Rubachev and other family.

        Printed cotton business in Russia began got implanted since 2nd half of 18th century in connection with development of the textile industry. The largest institutions were constructed in the Vladimir, Moscow and Petersburg provinces. Textiles were made manually: the drawing printed on Indian or English calico with wooden boards - "maners". Russian chintz and kerchiefs not only had invariable success in the country, but also received numerous prizes and awards at the international exhibitions, where their founders received special differences.

        Îne of the largest factories of the end 19th - the beginnings of 20 centuries was the “Trehgornaya” (Three-mountain) manufactory based in 1799 by V.I. Prokhorov and F.I.Rezanov. Among various assortment of the Prohorov’s manufactory the important place was occupied with kerchiefs and shawls. Their manufacturing from the moment of the basis of manufacture and prior to the beginning of 20th century was mainly manual. On the majority of products, as a rule, "classical" placing of an ornament: wide, with a magnificent flower garland a border, big central part with rhythm counterbalanced bouquets or branches creating sensation of some static character of the pattern.

        Products of a pre-revolutionary “Trehgornaya” (Three-mountain) manufactory differed high art taste. The harmonious and counterbalanced parity of forms and rhythms of a flower ornament, absence of diversity and clamorousness in its colouring were characteristic for them.

        The most extensive group of 140 items makes up kerchiefs of the Baranov’s Troitsko-Aleksandrovskaya manufactory, which were in Karabanovo village of Aleksandrov district of the Vladimir province. It conducts the history since 1846 when I.F. Baranov has constructed factory on which was made dyeing of red calico, stuffing of kerchiefs and manufacturing shirt calico, painted in red "Adrianople" colour.

        Polichromatic vegetative patterns took the basic place in ornamentation products of the Troitsko-Aleksandrov manufactory. They are extremely generalized, conditional and solved graphically planar. Red colour, being present at each element of a pattern, united middle part and a border, a background and an ornament. Geometrical and oriental ("cucumber") motives there are on Baranov’s kerchiefs equally with vegetative patterns.

        Patterns, characteristic for national stuffed fabrics of 19th century remained as a whole, on Baranov’s red calico kerchiefs. Both at manual, and at the advanced, mechanical printing they continued to be used up to 1920th.
