Sidewall (USA)
This is a sidewall. It is dated 1840s and we acquired it in 1956. Its medium is block-printed paper. It is a part of the Wallcoverings department.
An elaborate imitation stone design with a trellis or diaper pattern printed over the veining. The pattern follows in the tradition of damask papers and creates a warmer, less severe design than the more typical ashlar block renderings. Also, the use of red, white and blue creates a certain cheerfulness not typically found on faux marble papers.
