Cirebon Batik: Mega Mendung:
Blue Rain Clouds Material: Cotton Background: The mega mendung (rain cloud) motif is a dominant theme in Cirebon batik. The graduated colours of the clouds against a strong background show Chinese influence. The origin is the cloud designs which appeared on bronze vessels during the Chou Dynasty in China in the 7th century BC. According to Chinese mythology, the Nymph Goddess of Love revealed her presence through rain clouds during the day and through rain mists during the night. The Goddess of Love is therefore implied in the batiks with the mega mendung pattern.
