Monuments Of Paris

It took weeks of emails and phone calls, but I  *finally* have 2 panels of the Monuments of Paris wallpaper in my studio.

These are from the same batch used for the Met Museum’s William C. Williams parlor room. The panels are an exact replica of an American wallpaper produced in 1810, and I’m using them for a piece as part of my Bounty series. I’m super excited.

Many thanks to the Met Museum and my friend, the wonderful art historian Nikki Georgopulos, for much needed research help!
