Description

I like to call it my 'Serendipity' with the past! For the last 6 days I have shown you posts of my rescued wallpaper efforts from a house renovation. # 1 ~Lithographies, Originales~ # 2 ~Bieres de la Meuse~ # 3 ~Moulin Rouge, ConcertBal~ # 4 ~Isolde~ # 5 ~Sarah Bernhardt~ # 6 ~La Rosiere, Melodrame~ *** I am such a sucker for anything Art Deco/Art Nouveau and just couldn't resist sharing with all of you, my big weakness. I wonder, if any of you have a FAV? or more than one? I love'em all! Please, feel free to share your thoughts with me and don't forget to ZOOM - IN ... but most of all enjoy and naturally thanks goes to 'old Al' ;-) Cheers my friends - I will now come and visit your galleries, to comment again as usual, promise! Brigitte (aka blondeblurr)

I like the top left because that hat is a triumph!! But my favourite has to be the Aubrey Beardsley. What a wonderful find and thankyou so much for showing us!

A wonderful collection! Thanks for sharing! Two weeks ago, I bought two coffee-table books about Art Nouveau paintings from "Mucha" and according jewelry from "Rene Lalique". Nice!! :)

It's amazing you could save that much from the fire at Old Al's place, the damage there was quite extensive, lucky he had good insurance ! This is definitely the koolest wall paper I've ever seen ! Timely rescue and thanx for the share ! ~Cheers~

I have always loved Deco/Nouveau art. Many years ago I worked in a art store that had a ornate pressed tin ceiling from the 20s. In a rushed effort to make a profit from the space everyone was made to move and the building demolished.Nothing was saved. Great job saving something that must have brought happiness to people for many years and will continue to do so thanks to your efforts.

My sister has always been a drama queen. My mother used to call her 'Sarah Heartburn' so that panel would be my emotional favorite. I like them all but if I had to choose I'd go with the lower right. Their condition is amazing. Thanks for sharing these with us.

These are real Art Deco/Art Nouveau beauties, Brigitte. Okay, I like them all, but my favorites are # 1 ~Lithographies, Originales~ # 2 ~Bieres de la Meuse~ and #5 ~Sarah Bernhardt. I don't know the exact material they were printed on, but I wonder if they could withstand the hazard of being unwrinkled with a warm flat iron? Covered with a towel, of course.

I am so happy for you, that you could rescue this 'Art Deco'. I enjoy this with you, and am excited about the appearance from all shown here. Mid-below could be you, Brigitchen ;-). But how about a tap-dance in the Moulin Rouge? Stunning beauties this are. Thank you so much for sharing, dear Sis!

No, I love them all and seeing them together like this seals it. I too LOVE Art Nouveau fist then Art Deco. That is when life WAS art. I see I missed a few so I'm off to check them out. Wonderful.
