Venice – George Elbert Burr (c. early 1900s) | Vintage Architectural Wallpaper
George Elbert Burr’s Venice captures the city not in its spectacle, but in its silence. Rendered in delicate etching around the early 1900s, this view of canals and worn facades shimmers with atmosphere. There's no crowd, no carnival—just stone, water, and time, softly breathing together beneath a pale sky.
Known for his masterful use of light and texture, Burr approached Venice like a poet with a pen—drawing out its shadows, reflections, and quiet grandeur. As wallpaper, this piece brings a sense of faded elegance and European romance to your space. Ideal for calm interiors, gallery-like hallways, or bedrooms that lean old-world and timeless.
This wallpaper is adapted from the original artwork by George Elbert Burr, now in the public domain. It has been carefully restored and formatted for large-scale interior use under a public domain license.

How to Measure Your Walls
Installation
Your wallpaper comes with easy-to-follow instructions. Here's how it works:
STEP 1: PREP & LAY OUT
Cut the lengths at the marked symbols. Lay them out in numerical order, starting with length number one.
STEP 2: TIME TO HANG
For pasted wallpaper: roll the paste directly onto the wall. The panels are numbered left to right—hang from ceiling to floor, working from the center outward.
For Peel & Stick: just peel off the backing and apply it straight to the wall—no paste needed.
STEP 3: FINISHING TOUCHES
Trim any excess along the ceiling and floor. That’s it. You're done.
