French wallpaper and the 18th century style
It is at the end of the eighteenth century that the wallpaper knows a boom without precedent. The trend was born in England, where designers imagined wallpapers inspired by the colors and themes of paintings of the time. The wallpapers of the Georgian period are rightly famous.
But the French wallpapers, inspired by the works of artists such as Chardin, Vernet or Carmontelle, have nothing to envy them. Our panoramic French wallpapers allow you to recreate at home, in large format, master paintings and an atmosphere inspired by the Regency and Rococo periods, but also by the neoclassical trends of the Empire period. This period is marked by a wind of freedom which is expressed in particular in painting. The style is lighter, more playful than in the previous century. The motifs are more natural and simple, but no less charming.
The artists opt for pastel colors, forget the excess of gilding and brocades. The landscape holds a major place in their works and this is what makes it an inexhaustible source of inspiration for the creation of French wallpaper patterns. But there are also other themes, such as the fêtes galantes, typical of the time. This theme refers to a society in love with the pleasures and joys of life, often in contact with nature.
Whether the themes represented or the choice of colors, the artistic tradition of the eighteenth century is a breeding ground for images that are still used today to create beautiful French wallpapers, in panoramic format. You can find them on our website, in different colors and made to measure.

The main themes of French decoration
French artists like to paint nature, with landscapes that look great on your living room wall, if you choose a large format French panoramic wallpaper. You may prefer a reproduction of a canvas that depicts only nature, or a French wallpaper with a country scene. Landscapes are often urban or choose to emphasize an architectural element, sometimes antique, in a natural setting. Court figures are depicted participating in country lunches or country and gallant parties.
In the panoramic wallpapers inspired by museum works, the contrast is striking between the flamboyant clothing and the peaceful decor in which the joy of living of the participants in the festival is expressed. Blue skies dotted with clouds, trees with exuberant foliage, shepherds and pastures are among the favorite themes of the 18th century. Artists also liked to depict the sumptuous dresses of noblewomen, accompanied in their gallant parties or their country escapades by charming marquises.

Grisailles wallpapers
The French panoramic wallpapers we offer allow you to adorn your walls with the most beautiful scenes born from the imagination of 18th century painters. If you are looking for a more sober but equally stylish interior decoration, you might be tempted by the grisaille. Our French wallpapers take on the charm of grisailles, these monochrome cameo scenes, sometimes easier to match to your interior design.
Grisailles were revived during the neoclassical period but were already all the rage during the Renaissance and are therefore part of the great tradition of French decorations. They are also found in some 20th century cubists.
