This stunning photograph showcases a set of Luxury Egyptian-style wall hangings from around 1900. The decorative ensemble includes a painted wood and lacquer pelmet, satin lambrequin, and a velvet curtain adorned with ancient Egyptian flower motifs. The pelmet, or croisee genre Egyptien, features a galerie bois laque et peint, or painted wood and lacquer frame, with a velvet bandeau, or decorative border, and velvet applications. The lambrequin, or satin drapes, are adorned with colorful embroidery and fringes, while the velvet curtain, or grand rideau de dessous, adds an elegant touch to the design. The wall itself is covered in a satin damask, with horizontal blue stripes, creating a rich and textured background. This exquisite set of wall hangings is a testament to the enduring appeal of Egyptian-inspired design during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The design was popularized by French architect and interior decorator Ernest Foussier, who created this design as part of a series of new models of wall hangings and window decorations. The design was published in the book "Nouveaux Modèles de Tentures, Decorations de Fenêtres" by E. Thezard Fils, Librairie Speciale d'Architecture in Dourdan, France, in 1900. The intricate details of the design, from the delicate embroidery to the rich velvet textures, make this a truly luxurious and timeless addition to any interior space.
