介绍（中）	这个大棉被的顶部是由方形块组成的，每个块都在点上形成钻石。每个方块由十三个不同印刷颜色的小方块组成，周围是白色织物的三角形，构成钻石。在街区之间，有一条深蓝色棉质的腰带，上面印有白色的小花朵图案。在被子的中心，有一颗钻石，上面装饰着一颗八角星。被子的边缘用一块红色花纹的棉花捆起来。特别令人感兴趣的是被子的衬布，这是一种大胆的大型日本"骗子布"图案（或印刷的仿拼接），展示了穿着和服的日本女士在异国风景中的重复场景，以及鸟类、蝴蝶和扇子装饰。19世纪80年代，美国棉花印花在设计和印刷质量上达到了顶峰。由于这种类型的织物卷早已用完，所以可以在被子中找到长长度的现存例子，无论是全布被子还是被子背衬织物。像这床被子背后的那种富有魅力和想象力的面料，让人想起了美学运动设计对工厂生产的最便宜的纺织品的影响，以及公众似乎对这种异国风格的喜爱。
介绍（英）	The top of this large cotton quilt is made up of with square blocks, each set on point to form diamonds. Each block is composed of thirteen small squares of different printed colored cottons, surrounded by triangles of white fabric to make up the diamond. In between the blocks, there is sashing of dark blue cotton printed with a small white floral pattern. At the center of the quilt, there is one diamond that is decorated with an eight-pointed star. The quilt’s edges are bound with a red patterned cotton. Of particular interest is the quilt’s backing fabric, which is a bold large-scale Japanesque pattern of "cheater cloth" (or printed imitation patchwork,) that shows repeating scenes of kimono-wearing Japanese ladies in exotic landscapes, as well as bird, butterfly and fan decorations. American cotton printing was at its zenith of design and quality of printing in the 1880s. Since rolls of this type of fabric have long since been used up, the place to find long lengths of extant examples is in quilts, either wholecloth quilts or quilt backing fabrics. Charming and imaginative fabric like the one backing this quilt give some idea of the influence of Aesthetic Movement design on even the least expensive of factory-produced textiles, and the general public’s seeming love for this exotic style.
