Wallpaper Panoramic L'Eden LE GRAND SIECLE
€110.00 m²
Made by Manufacturer Jules Desfossé in 1861, the panoramic wallpaper, « L’Eden » has been achieved thanks to amazing technical feats. 3642 engraving woodblocks have been needed for the complete artwork, which was composed with 1099 colors. This represented unequalled performance, as by comparison, traditional wallpaper nowadays uses rarely more than 8 colors. Symbolizing the taste of time for exoticism and faraway countries, this mural may have been presented in London at the Universal exhibition of 1862.
Revitalizing such fabulous panoramic wallpaper by means of digital restoration was a patient and meticulous work of fifty hours completed by our workshop.
