European Wall & Ceiling Ornament

Classical European Decorative Painting

We are very excited about these classical ornamental designs sent to us by a European friend, taken from a nineteenth century, German "pattern" book.  If you are looking for brilliant, striking, and yet traditional ideas for decorative painted ornament for walls and ceilings, you can't do better that to study the 75 images you'll find here.   Taken from a work entitled "Wasmuth's Neue Malereien", published in 1890 by Ernst Wasmuth, Berlin.
