拍品专文

This twenty-five panel panoramic series was first printed in 1818 and the original artist is unknown. The panels here depict the monumental palace of Calypso, with Telemaque leaving the hunt with Eucharis. Calypso sees them and is overcome with jealousy. (O. Nouvel-Kammerer, Papiers Peints Panoramiques, Paris, 1990, p. 262.). The complete series of this wallpaper was formerly in the home of Andrew Jackson, Nashville, Tennessee.
