Strawberry Hill Floret Wallpaper - A

This spare but quietly dramatic pattern was found in the Tribune Passage at Strawberry Hill, a short hall between the Tribune and the Gallery.

Strawberry Hill Floret creates a sense of depth by using the “slip print” technique. On the paper’s first pass over the printing bench the block printed a very dark gray. During the second pass the same block was used to print the white, offsetting the registration slightly so as to mostly – but not entirely- obscure the first color and create the illusion of a shadow.
