IVORY 19th Century Kate Geenaway The Months Wallpaper

"Middle-class homes in the later 19th century had a nursery. This room provided separate accommodation for the children of the family and the nursemaid, nanny and governess who looked after them. All kinds of furnishings were designed specially for children, including nursery wallpapers. The designs considered suitable for nursery wallpapers were either educational or morally improving subjects. They were usually decorated with pictures, as seen on this paper, which has figures representing the months of the year. The illustrations were adapted from Kate Greenaway's Almanack', which was published once a year from 1883 to 1897. Greenaway was a very popular and successful illustrator of children's books. Her drawings were often copied or adapted to other uses. " V&A

 

The Print

Individually printed to order onto high quality paper with high detail and colour definition. The image shown on this website does not reflect the quality of the printed item. The printed item will be of a much higher quality with no blur or undefined print. Colours will be crisp and clean.

Approx, 10" high x 23" long

The pattern does not repeat and so you will need to cut carefully to ensure a pattern repeat if you are joining edges.

Because of the length of the wallpaper I shall roll it to post it. All 4 edges are selvage which protects the edges of the design from any accidental scuffing. This selvage will need to be cut away. 

 

Do you require taller paper?

If you require a taller paper the please do contact me. There is no maximum height. As a rule I charge £1 per inch (in height) and an additional £5 per set up per design.

    The resolution (sharpness of detail) of the prints is of a very very high quality and although you maybe viewing a slightly pixilated image of the mural your print will be sharp, clear and beautiful. All murals are printed on thick high grade paper that has a matt finish and will not wrinkle when glued. The inks will not bleed if the paper is made wet.
