Wallpaper from Fairfax House, mid-C18th building in York.  Recreated from a fragment.  An improbably coloured bird with a polka-dot blue tail sits on an equally unlikely branch with hollyhock-type open flowers, nust and blossom.

Wallpaper showing, on the left, a brightly coloured butterfly on a coral bamboo stem; behind, a large passion-flower (?) in cream, bronze and yellow, all against a gold back-ground.  Photo taken in The Ivy, York.
