Panoramic decor: THE INCAS

Published in 1818, this panoramic wallpaper was manufactured by Manufacture Dufour. This panoramic relates the conquest of Peru by Pizarro in the 16th century and represents, among other things, the celebration of the festival of the sun at the temple of Cuzco. The famous designer of this decor: Louis Joseph Fuchs drew his inspiration from Marmontel's novel "The Incas". the author published it in 1778 and dedicated it to the king of Sweden. The work denounces fanaticism and the “false zeal” of religion.
