Abegg-Stiftung, Werner Abeggstrasse 67, 3132 Riggisberg
During the reign of the Mughal dynasty (1526-1858), the art of textiles was highly developed in India. Multicolored velvets, elaborately patterned silks and reserve-dyed cottons were created for the interiors of Indian royal courts, but also for clothing and letter pouches. The Abegg-Stiftung is showing its small but impressive collection of Indian textiles for the first time. Together with colorful miniature paintings, they offer a fascinating insight into India's textile heyday.
