EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning faience mural with a border adorned in highly stylized repeating patterns using plant forms. The intricate design, created by Prisse d Avennes in the 19th century, reflects the influence of Persian and Arabian art on European decorative arts during that time. The earthy red tones of the terracotta background beautifully complement the vibrant colors of blue, lilac, and turquoise used to depict the floral motifs. The meticulous attention to detail is evident in every element of this artwork, from the delicate vines intertwining with flowers to the geometric borders that frame it. Originally featured in "L'Art Arabe d'après les Monuments de Kaire" this faience mural served as inspiration for designers who sought to replicate its beauty in various mediums such as carpets and wallpaper. Its timeless appeal continues to captivate viewers today. This print from Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate not only the artistic value but also the cultural significance behind this piece. It represents an exquisite example of Islamic decorative arts and serves as a testament to human creativity throughout history. Whether displayed in a gallery or cherished within a private collection, this faience mural print is sure to add elegance and sophistication to any space it graces.
