Tapet Gardens of Orpheus

The Gardens of Orpheus wallpaper from the Britannia collection recreates with sublime theatricality the world of mythological gardens and classical harmony in a composition where nature, art and order are in perfect balance. Inspired by the rigorous symmetry of Baroque gardens and the symbolism of the myth of Orpheus, this design transforms the space into a scene of monumental silence, dominated by ancient statues and plant arches cut with geometric precision.

The central landscape is an imposing alleyway lined with green walls of ivy, rising vertically to form a solemn vegetal corridor. The eye is led to the background where a statue shrouded in mystery stands beneath a perfectly centred natural opening, suggesting a gateway to another world or a final initiation. In the foreground, two classical statues, set on massive stone pedestals, watch over this scene with timeless dignity. The red roses, growing at the base of the pedestals, add a touch of chromatic vitality and evoke passion, suffering or lost love - central themes of the Orphic myth.

The black and white chequered floor, common with other designs in the collection, reiterates the theatrical theme and creates an orderly graphic counterpoint, underlining the monumentality of the whole scene. The pastel sky and the diaphanous blue of the background balance the composition, giving it depth and serenity.

Through its visual vocabulary, Gardens of Orpheus refers to the concept of the garden as a ritual space where nature is transformed into metaphor and geometry. This wallpaper is not merely decorative but symbolic - a representation of the crossing, initiation and contemplative silence that characterise the great classical myths.

Ideal for monumental spaces, whether wide hallways, reading rooms, lounges or interiors with neoclassical and symbolist influences, this pattern lends intellectual depth and sober theatricality to any setting. Gardens of Orpheus invites quiet reflection, evoking a lost mythology preserved in stone, ivy and dream.
