Sheet with an overall floral pattern 1800 - 1900

This anonymous, 19th-century sample of patterned wallpaper from the Metropolitan Museum of Art is a beautiful example of the decorative arts of the period. Featuring a repetitive motif of stylized floral patterns with green and pink details on a light cream background, the wallpaper reflects a popular aesthetic of the time. The simple yet elegant design, characterized by delicate floral motifs, would have been well-suited for a variety of domestic spaces, adding a touch of charm and elegance to Victorian homes.
