Wallpaper

1870–1880

Framed Chinoiserie wallpaper sample. Appears to be a pattern of two alternating scenes. In the first, a woman serves tea to a man sitting on a porch. In the second, the woman looks on as the man fishes and a boy flies a kite. Both scenes also include birds, plants, a river, and bridges. Roller printed in greens, pinks, reds, purples, browns, black, and white on ungrounded paper. Mounted in a plain black wooden frame.
