Panel c. 19th century

This anonymous 19th-century wallpaper panel features a scenic landscape with repeating motifs of mountains, waterfalls, and buildings. Printed with a dark brown ink onto a beige background, the design is reminiscent of a chinoiserie aesthetic popular in the West during that period. The intricate detail of the wallpaper, despite being from an unknown artist, hints at the skilled craftmanship and decorative sensibilities of the time. This "Panel" is a prime example of 19th-century wallpaper design, showcasing the growing popularity of decorative arts and the influence of eastern aesthetics on Western design.
