Antique scroll Mural
This is a hand painted antique scroll on papyrus. The paper is not real paper, I faux finished the texture, so it is all painted! My client gave me some quotes she liked which were rounding up the whole mural.
The mural is in the entry way on a wall which connects kitchen and living room.
A 17th century mural after the painting of Nicholas Lancret (1690-1743). Let’s become romantic… 
The angel is sleeping – tranquility is the keyword.
The landscape is growing, more trees and bushes. Roses around the angel – it’s timeless. No need to rush. Tranquility.
A girl – still in no motion. Flower in her hair. A little smile…
The star, the highlight of the mural is beginning to come into existence. It’s a beautiful lady…
Here she is:
Mademoiselle Marie de Camargo. One of the first famous ballerinas in Europe. She might have been forgotten but when I found her it made me feel happy. She is history. She is wonderful. She is dancing forever…
