Wallpaper strip with floral and bird motifs printed on boards, 19th c.
This horizontal strip is organized into three main motifs: a central bouquet of roses (one in bloom and others in bud), blue flowers and two cartouches on either side featuring a multicolored bird surrounded by plants. These three motifs are surrounded by gilded ornamentation (irons and acanthus scrolls). To entertain the eye, a multitude of plants and flowers gravitate around the large motifs, linking the entire decorative program. In places, they even step out of the frame; nature invites itself in.
The design is precise and high quality, and the plant motifs are painted in their natural state. The color contrasts also contribute to the cheerfulness of this composition, without forgetting the play of light and shadow, bringing realism to the depiction of the elements.

Good condition, with some folds and missing polychromy (see photos).

Dimensions: Length: 169 cm excluding margins, height: 55.5 cm
