Toile de jouy, the wood-block and copper-plate printed textiles with repeated designs of pastoral scenes and figures. have been around since the 18th century. That's a couple of centuries of bucolic locals frolicking amongst the assorted ruins, bridges, and gazebos that seem to litter the landscape in these kind of things...so it's obviously time for a change. And thanks to this scarf from Morphine Generation we have it...the aforementioned locals are now armed with semi-automatics (at least the children are...ah, the younger generation, bless them)...and the images are interspersed with text, my favorite of which begins with "I cut your name into my arm"...it's just all too, too romantic...in a slightly creepy, dysfunctional, idyllic way that is.
