Le Dauphin is both classic and original, a design from the Pierre Frey archives dated to the 1780s and traditionally hand screen printed in France on cotton cloth. Its theme may allude to the 1781 birth of the first son of Louis XVI, known as the dauphin, which gives the pattern the charm of a commemorative document. History aside, it earns its place on merit: a period drawing, printed as it always was.
