This anonymous 18th-century design for a wallpaper, known as "Panel," exemplifies the Rococo style. Characterized by its intricate details, the wallpaper features a repeating pattern of stylized floral motifs, including roses, leaves, and berry clusters. It is also noteworthy for its inclusion of small, fantastical architectural structures, often associated with the chinoiserie trend, suggesting an idealized landscape. This piece, now housed in the Art Institute of Chicago, demonstrates the popularity of floral and garden-inspired designs in 18th-century decorative art.
