Publisher Description: Wallpaper design has captivated Western consumers for 300 years, but this book looks closer - at wallpaper use. It tells how single-sheet wallpaper developed in Europe, found wide acceptance in England and France, and was successfully transplanted to the North American colonies. By 1750, wallpaper was well-established and poised for phenomenal growth. |
