Jamavar Shawl and Monet



A Guest post by Komal Kaul on discovering a bit of Kashmir in an art exhibit in Chicago.


I recently went to the Chicago Art Institute , where they had a special exhibit on Impressionism , Fashion and Mordern Art. One of the paintings ( actually a loaner from Met Museum of Art NY) was this:

Madame Louis Joachim Gaudibert, 1868
The lady in the paintings actually has a very intricately embroidered Koshur Jamavar Shawl. The artist is Claude Monet.
