"Le Bois sacré cher aux Arts et aux Muses (The Sacred Grove, Beloved of the Arts and the Muses)" is one of Pierre Puvis de Chavannes's most celebrated murals, painted in the 1880s for the grand staircase of the Palais des Arts in Lyon. The composition imagines an idealized classical landscape populated by the Muses and personifications of the arts, rendered in Puvis's characteristic pale, matte, fresco-like palette and simplified, harmonious forms. The mural's serene classicism had a profound influence on later artists, including Georges Seurat and the Symbolists, who admired its flattened space and quiet, contemplative mood.
Jacquard-woven both sides in soft, durable yarn; insert included.

The subject alone sold me and the execution sealed it. The clarity of sacred grove chavannes makes it look like the original was photographed yesterday. There is no pixelation at all, even with my nose close to it. It has come through a summer of open windows and humidity without a problem.
Wonderful to read, thank you. We put a lot of thought into how these are packed, so it is good to know that came through.
This was packed carefully and showed up without a mark on it. The detail in the small areas is much better than I expected. It washed clean on a cold cycle with no shrinking. I am pleased with how this turned out.
This has been the easiest online order I have placed in years. Every line in sacred grove chavannes is crisp, even in the busiest areas. I have already ordered two more for other rooms. The whole thing feels like it was made by people who care about it. It is the best thing in the upstairs hallway now.
My daughter picked this out and she has better taste than I do. I keep noticing new corners of sacred grove chavannes weeks later. It has become one of my favorite things in the house…
This shop does everything right, from checkout to delivery. I have been hunting for a good version of sacred grove chavannes for two years.
