Interiors showing wall paper
A 1907 New York trade catalogue published by S.A. Maxwell & Co. for wallpaper buyers and dealers, showing wallpaper hung in room settings. The photographs are sepia views of rooms with patterned papers on walls, shelves, a curtain, a table and chairs, each composed to display the paper's pattern and colour. A designer could take from them examples of period wallpaper repeats, including small damask-like motifs, geometric lattices, and frieze borders set above a dado.
