A worn fragment of a silvered, painted leather sidewall wallcovering with some cracks and discoloration. In the bottom right corner a bird is perched on a twig, its beak cut by the edge of the wallcovering, while in the bottom left corner six small red daisy-like flowers grow from a dark green stem with eight green leaves. Larger dark green leaves frame the wallcovering from the bottom left to the upper right and a cream cocoon winds its way towards the center from the upper right corner. The background is golden and diapered, decorated with a repeating geometric pattern, here stamped triangles.
