Jules-Edmond-Charles Lachaise's 1867 watercolor, "Design for Grand Salon Ceiling, Hôtel Hope," showcases a whimsical design for a grand salon ceiling, likely intended for a Parisian home. The composition depicts a circular sky filled with a multitude of birds in flight, a motif that could represent freedom and aspiration. The design is framed by delicate floral swags and an intricately detailed molding, reflecting the elegant tastes of the late 19th century. The artwork is currently housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.
