The Victoria & Albert Museum |
We’ve seen other examples of wallpapers created expressly for the Diamond Jubilee of Queen Victoria in 1897. This is the most abstract and vibrantly-colored, indicative of the coming rise of the Arts and Crafts Movement.
The design for the wallpaper depicts a crown, rose, thistle, shamrock and acanthus, in green, yellow and blue. This sample is signed in ink by C. F. A. Voysey. Architect. 23, York Place W.
