Le Ballon – Imprimeur E. Pichot (late 19th century) | Vintage Hot Air Balloon Wallpaper
Printed in the late 19th century, Le Ballon by Imprimeur E. Pichot captures the wonder of early flight—an elegant hot air balloon rising above the countryside, carrying dreams of exploration into open skies. The delicate lines and soft hues evoke a world where adventure was stitched together from silk, fire, and skybound imagination.
Imprimeur E. Pichot was part of a golden age of lithographic printing, when technological marvels like ballooning captured the public’s imagination and fueled a wave of illustrated ephemera. This piece brings a sense of whimsy, wanderlust, and vintage sophistication to interiors, making it perfect for creative studios, adventurous children's rooms, or any space craving the spirit of old-world discovery.
This wallpaper is adapted from the original lithograph by Imprimeur E. Pichot, now in the public domain. It has been respectfully upscaled and adapted for large-scale wall display under a public domain license.

Wallpaper Samples
All samples are printed on our premium wallpaper stock—so what you get is exactly what goes on your wall. Our artwork is scaled to show as much of the design as possible in an A3 size.
How to Measure Your Walls
Only measure the area that will be covered—skip the baseboards, trim, or molding. Measure the full width and height at their widest and tallest points. Use a tape measure and jot down your numbers. For accuracy, add an extra 2-4 inches (5-10 cm) to both width and height when placing your order. This makes installation smoother. If your wallpaper extends across multiple adjacent walls, measure the total combined width as one continuous wall - do not treat them like separate walls or orders.
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.
