Home Wallpapers History
Awareness of the extensive use of wallpapers in American home decor from the 18th through the middle of the 20th centuries has increased dramatically in recent decades.
Styles and fashions of wallpaper and how it was used in interior decoration have varied from century to century and decade to decade, but an interest in the styles of the past has long been a factor in the design and production of walllpaper.
The Gothic Revival wallpapers popular in home decorating during the 1830s and 1840s, for example, were based on the architecural wallpapers of the 1760s and 1770s. Even William Morris, often credited with reinventing wallpaper as art in the late 1800s, used motifs and patterns from medieval manuscripts, 16th century herbals, and Renaissance designs.
Today, just about every wallpaper manufacturer offers traditional and even reproduction patterns, but quality and authenticity vary greatly. If you are familiar with historical variations in wallpaper patterns, production methods, popularity, and usage you will better be able to decide which paper is the most historically appropriate for your period home.
