The painted and carved boiserie decoration from the 1836-1840 Renaissance-Revival bedchamber of Baron Hope is not typical for the Louis-Phillipe-era France.
Evocation of a bedroom with Louis-Philippe as part of the woodwork from the hotel baron William Hope, located 57 rue Saint-Dominique (current Polish Embassy). This prominent banker has had installed in his hotel exuberant taste, enhanced by light-colored golds. The woodwork of his room is an outstanding example of reinterpretation of Renaissance taste.
