Behang: Zoffany, Intaglio

The Intaglio collections are inspired by and use the distinctive ‘intaglio’ printmaking technique of incising a design into a hard surface to create dynamic wallpapers. Three of these designs draw on the architectural lines of ancient and classical Rome, other designs depict illustrative maps, forests of sycamore trees and a sophisticated smaller scale design of repeated coronets.

With a variety of designs such as the Facade, which is inspired by architecture. The End Paper design is an old Zoffany design from the temple newsam collection. showing as a repeated duty stamp on various shades of backgrounds. There's also the design called Rome, Rome's architectural legacy is unparalleled and was an inspiration for this design where its temples, arenas and public squares are shown in their classic glory. The London design is inspired by a printed silk handkerchief recently purchased by the Zoffany archive. The detail is extraordinary and it is possible to recognise the streets even as they are today. finally the Richmond Park design was based upon a block printed wallpaper. The sycamore trees are reminiscent of Royal Parks and mature forests. Printed by surflex, the layering of inks and pigments gives the design a three dimensional feel.
