The design is inspired from a wall paper panoramic of the 19th century Isola Bella attributed to Eugne Ehrmann (1804-1896) and to Georges Ziplius (1808-1890). It is a gentle reflection of a society fond of botanical themes, this landscape depicts with great detail new plants such as the palm-tree and the magnolia, collected by naturalists during their ocean voyages.
