Description from the seller

Superb Art Nouveau wallpaper sheet from a very old professional catalog of Guillot Paris, a prestigious French manufacturer active at the turn of the 20th century. This authentic piece comes from the collection dated 1902, an emblematic period of French Art Nouveau and its floral motifs with elegant, organic lines.

The design features a refined composition around a central iris surrounded by golden and turquoise vegetal scrolls, typical of the decorative aesthetics of that era. The wallpaper has magnificent iridescent blue reflections subtly shimmering, particularly visible depending on the angle of light, bringing depth and remarkable presence to the whole. The original colors are exceptionally well preserved despite 120 years.

This old sheet is in perfect condition for its age, with hues that have remained fresh and bright. It constitutes a rare decorative piece, ideal for a high-end framing, or a collection devoted to Art Nouveau and French decorative arts.

Dimensions: 42 x 32 cm.

The frame shown in the presentation photos is not included in the sale.
