A Golden Age Wallpaper Sample

A warm spotlight is cast over a bursting bouquet of chrysanthemums, tulips, anemones, hyacinths and apple blossoms. This is an ode to nature at the peak of its splendor and beauty, and to the moment when a life achieves its best expression. The flowers symbolize a sense of wonder and gratitude for the brief, and best, of times that we have. For Ellie, flowers of the Dutch Golden Age are symbols of our intense longing, desire, and aspiration towards beauty. Thinking about how she might apply her own hand to this subject matter, it occurred to her that she might want to do this with more softness, applying less clinical precision, and revealing more emotional vulnerability. At the same time, by creating wallpaper from this kind of floral composition, she felt bold enough to enlarge its scale and place it into a repeating pattern, so that the power of its symbolism is amplified, and becomes capable of transforming an entire space. With A Golden Age Wallpaper, a wall, a ceiling or an entire room becomes a dramatic, romantic and large-than-life celebration of beauty – both the kind that exists already, and the kind we can create ourselves.
