Summary:
Au XIXe siècle, les châles en cachemire suscitèrent une folle passion, fort bien décrite - et parfois raillée - par Balzac. Ramenés de la campagne d'Egypte par les soldats de Bonaparte, ils donnèrent naissance à une vogue qui se répandit comme une traînée de poudre.

Summary:
Au XIXe siècle, les châles en cachemire suscitèrent une folle passion, fort bien décrite - et parfois raillée - par Balzac. Ramenés de la campagne d'Egypte par les soldats de Bonaparte, ils donnèrent naissance à une vogue qui se répandit comme une traînée de poudre. Une nouvelle industrie se développa alors en Europe pour répondre à cet engouement croissant, et Napoléon poussa les fabricants français à rivaliser d'astuce pour imiter ces cachemires hors de prix. L'invention du métier à tisser Jacquard permis alors d'exécuter des décors étonnamment riches et complexes. La production française, entraîna même les artisans du Cachemire à imiter les modèles envoyés de Paris. Monique Lévi-Strauss, retrace, dans cet ouvrage très documenté, illustré et complété par de récentes découvertes, l'histoire de cette production, symbole du génie industriel, du raffinement et de la délicatesse du XIXe siècle. Exploitant documents d'archives, comptes rendus d'expositions et collections privées et publiques, l'auteur explore ce pan de l'histoire des arts et des techniques et fait.
