Pattern on Pattern

Pattern-filled art prints: paintings, posters, illustrations and manuscript paintings in which figures and rooms are covered in patterned textiles, carpets, tiles and wallpapers. Artists include Henri Matisse, Paul Signac (Portrait of Félix Fénéon), Wassily Kandinsky, Jan Toorop, Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Jean-Léon Gérôme (The Carpet Merchant), Eugène Grasset, Louis Rhead, Aubrey Beardsley, George Barbier and Karl Wiener. The collection also includes Persian miniatures and Kalila wa Dimna manuscript paintings, and a Ravi Varma Press print. Most European works are Art Nouveau posters and Orientalist, Post-Impressionist and Art Deco works of the 1880s to 1920s.

The selection is grouped by surface rather than subject, with layered patterns filling each composition from edge to edge.

The busy, colourful surfaces suit living rooms, dining rooms and rooms with plain walls and simple furniture. All prints are museum-quality reproductions, available unframed or framed with acrylic glazing, with free shipping and import duties covered.
