Chinese wallpaper with potted kumquat tree

Ink and watercolours on paper

China, 18th century

 

This panel of painted wallpaper shows fruits, flowers and birds around a potted kumquat on a red wooden stool. It would have been part of a set of papers intended for decorating a Chinese room inside a European house. This widespread taste in interior decoration was part of a fashion known as Chinoiserie - a fanciful Chinese style invented by Europeans.

 

Custom printed on 280gsm smooth matte fine art paper.
