Pygmalion, the King of Cyprus who cast a female figure out of ivory to have it brought to life by Aphrodite, is depicted here in this three-metre, four panel mural piece.
A single colourway in Alabaster gives way to the decadence of this design, where rococo dolphins, giant artichokes, fennel, garlic bulbs and mollusc shells meet architectural detailing in a Baroque style.
Strings of pearls and feathers contrast with stag beetles for the ultimate, decadent contradiction in mural form.Fascinated by the world of Trompe-l`oeil, Giles has captured this sense of an imaginary world, brought together through classical iconography with Surrealism in play. A wonderous sense of theatre, here the curtain is being drawn back to reveal an astonishing panorama with juxtapositions of scale, object versus landscape and a distorted view on classicism.

Brand information
In the late 19th century Arthur Sanderson opened his first wallpaper factory. He was well-known as a wallcoverings supplier, distributing wallpapers from around the world, and following his death in 1870 his sons took over the reins, growing the business even further.
Skipping forward to 1924, the business (at that point known as Arthur Sanderson & Sons) was awarded the Royal Warrant as Purveyors of Wallpaper to King George V - a clear mark of the renown and prestige associated with the company.
Nowadays Sanderson designs are reproduced on all manner of textiles and home accessories, as well as wallpaper. The thread that remains from Sanderson’s inception in 1860, is the theme of nature and the English countryside. Be it a traditional floral print, or contemporary bold motif, all Sanderson products expertly combine the beauty and elegance of nature, transferring them to eye-catching homeware products.
