This watercolor design for a ceiling by Jules-Edmond-Charles Lachaise, circa 1850-1900, depicts a whimsical scene of a trellis adorned with blooming roses against a blue sky with clouds. The intricate details of the trellis, roses, and swirling gold ornamentation in the corners suggest a romantic and luxurious setting, possibly for a grand salon or dining room. This design exemplifies the artistry and attention to detail prevalent in decorative art during the 19th century. It is currently housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.
