A French pattern book of 1890 printed in Paris by Imprimerie Victor Rose, its colour plates show decorative wall friezes, borders and corner ornaments meant for painters and decorators. The pictures are flat, bold colour plates of stylised scrolls, acanthus leaves and palmettes in red, blue, green and cream, useful to a designer looking for historical period ornament, border repeats and corner motifs.
