1910 Vintage Wallpaper The Cedar Tree Favour Box

A lovely fine art print of "The Cedar Tree" created by Arthur Sanderson & Sons Ltd., a British manufacturer of fabrics and wallpaper founded in 1860. This particular design dates back to 1910 and was block-printed on machine-made paper. The design boasts a solid black background, against which sits a diagonal branch of cypress from which grows clusters of cypress evergreen sprinkled with large bunches of lilac blossoms and foliage, and hanging clusters of yellow wisteria. On the branch sits a large peacock with a rich, brown body, blue neck and head, and a full luxurious blue tail falling among the blossoms and foliage.
