Design for a wall decoration with peacock, cranes, and sunflowers for the restaurant in Hotel Langham (Paris)

1896–98
Not on view
Wall elevation from a restaurant, formerly in the Hôtel Langham in Paris, now known as the 'Salle 1900' in the restaurant 'La Fermette Marbeuf'. This drawing was probably produced for reproduction, since a full color print of the exact same bay exists with the names of both Hurtre and Wielhorksi in print on the lower left.
