Fabric Coverings with Patterns of Gillyflowers and Water Lilies

Chris Lebeau, c. 1911 - c. 1915

These decorative panels of fabric were used in well-to-do circles to cover the walls of the sitting room. The Amsterdam designer Chris Lebeau designed patterns inspired by nature, including leaves and calyces. He spread them over the surface of the fabric in a strict rhythmic order.
