Design for a decorative panel painted in rococco style 1830 - 1897

This design for a decorative panel by Jules-Edmond-Charles Lachaise, dated between 1830 and 1897, showcases the Rococo style through its intricate floral motifs and delicate lines. The artwork, currently housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, features a central vertical element with stylized foliage and a blue background. The Rococo period was known for its elegance, ornamentation, and asymmetrical forms, and Lachaise's design exemplifies this style. The panel's delicate details and overall symmetry would have been well-suited for a decorative application, adding a touch of opulence to a room.
