Description

This wallpaper reproduces a motif known as “The Drapery” and is printed on cotton with the copper plate technique around 1795 by the Nantes-based manufacturer Favre, Petitpierre and Cie. It harmoniously unites a Chinese figure with a parasol and a bouquet embellished with a drapery in a theatrical style. Perfect illustration of French chinoiserie art where the iconographic European and Chinese elements are mixed together.
