An article tracing the history of cotton and linen printing in eighteenth-century Ireland, drawn from premiums, petitions, advertisements and directories. It covers early block and wax-resist printing at Palmerstown and Ballsbridge, the copperplate printing at Drumcondra, Leixlip and Temple-Oge, and the later copper-cylinder printing of Edward Clarke. It centers on the "Volunteer Furniture" chintz of 1783, printed with Lord Charlemont's review in Phoenix Park, which is illustrated as Plate I and described as the only securely identified Irish chintz.
