Shipping & pickup
A rare and extraordinary triptych of 18th century French painted wallpaper panels, each individually framed in gilt wood and together forming a sweeping panoramic landscape scene. The composition depicts fox hunters, figures on horseback, hounds in full stride, and grooms tending to horses, all set against a romantic pastoral backdrop with willow trees, a distant manor house, and rolling countryside. The naive yet highly expressive figural painting style is characteristic of French decorative panel work of the period. The panels retain their original painted surface with beautiful craquelure, paint cracking, and wear throughout, all consistent with age and adding immensely to their character. A truly singular set that would make a dramatic statement in any interior. SIZE Each panel: 35"W x 55.5"H (sight), 38.75"W x 59.25"H (framed) MATERIAL Painted wallpaper on panel, gilt wood frames ORIGIN France FINISH Original painted surface with natural craquelure and patina NOTES Sold as a set of 3 panels.
