With images from the Palace of Versailles you can see the Baroque era reflected into the interior these images were take on a recent trip to Paris allthough parisian and not russian like our set will be it shows the use of wallpaper and furniture. Images Above.



Thankfully Wallpaper was massive in the 19Th century thAdd Imageanks to print makers such as William Morris not William Wallace I always confuse the two !

Designs often showed greenery such as ferns and vines and whole rooms could be covered entirely in the same wallpaper with matching fabric and drapery this can be seen in French interior mainly.
