The 18th-century painter Aert Schouman was a true all-rounder with a large and versatile legacy, but his most imaginative works are undoubtedly his wall hangings — the height of fashion in the 18th century among the wealthy nobility and merchants. Schouman successfully positioned himself as the specialist in exotic animals, traveling far and wide to private menageries and country estates to sketch the very latest and trendiest bird species.
Inspired by two wallpapers: Birds in a Park Landscape, 1766. The two wall hangings in the collection of the Dordrechts Museum served as the inspiration for our extensive bespoke product line, ranging from children's backpacks to yoga towels, and from tights to placemats and napkins.
