We love everything about this concept! Restoration Hardware has taken beautiful 19th C. Antique Manuscript Pages ($169) and reproduced them as wall art. Paying homage to a time when the printed page was a finely crafted work of art, these prints reproduce leaves from a 19th-century textbook on writing and type in French and Latin. Bearing the signs of age and wear, the pages evoke a century of study in Lisieux, in northwestern France. The prints are framed behind glass in antiqued gilt-finished wood molding. The text use religious and historic themes to illustrate type design in French and Latin and are printed on paper with hand-torn edges. These works of art would beautifully compliment a study, office, or formal sitting room.
