Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
In 1968 a remarkable wall painting scheme thought to date from around 1580 to 1600 was uncovered during the renovation of Ivy House in Fittleworth, West Sussex. Threatened with destruction, four painted wattle-and-daub panels were removed and are now in the collection of the Weald and Downland Open Air Museum in Singleton, West Sussex. This article examines the wall paintings in the context of what we know about domestic wall painting during this period. It considers the relationship between the Ivy House scheme and other forms of decorative design, in particular block-printed wall papers and black-work embroidery. It offers an overview of the structural history of the house and what is known about the social status of its early occupants. Finally, it considers how the room might have been furnished in the late 16th and early 17th centuries and the relationship between domestic interior design and contemporary clothing fashions. | ||
