– ABOUT THIS DESIGN –

The intricate works of richly patterned stone that enraptured the Florentine courts of the 16th- and 17th-centuries inspires an arresting hand-painted interpretation of pietra dura, evoking the exquisite beauty of painstakingly composed inlaid marble. Arrayed across the wall within an irregular grid of square and rectangular vignettes, brightly plumed birds and bouquets of lush blooms conjure a verdant vision of the natural world in striking stasis.
