The Composition

What the mural describes.

A grand arrangement of prize tulips takes centre stage, each bloom a portrait of perfection. Behold the legendary Semper Augustus, its white petals dramatically flamed with crimson, alongside the regal Viceroy streaked with purple and white. Yellow-cupped varieties glow, while exotic parrot tulips unfurl their ruffled petals. From tight bud to magnificent full bloom, each flower is rendered with jewel-like precision, gathered in an elegant Delft-blue vase against a profound, dark ground that makes every hue sing.

Perfect for transforming a hallway into an art gallery, imbuing a dining room with historical grandeur, or creating a bedroom sanctuary of opulent calm. Our mural wallpaper is made to order, precisely printed to your wall's exact measurements on luxurious matt non-woven paste-the-wall paper, ensuring a seamless, captivating installation.

Questions

Asked of the studio.

What is unique about the 'broken' tulips featured?

The 'broken' tulips, such as Semper Augustus and Viceroy, display dramatic streaks and flames of contrasting colours. This highly prized effect was caused by a virus, making these varieties the most valuable during the Tulip Mania.

What is the historical inspiration behind this mural?

This mural is inspired by the Dutch Tulip Mania of 1637 in Haarlem, when tulip bulbs, recently introduced from the Ottoman Empire, became the most expensive objects in the world, with single bulbs trading for the price of houses. It captures the era's fascination and artistic documentation of these extraordinary flowers.
