| Scottish Highlands
The newest of the Murals, Scottish Highlands was block printed circa 1948.
The scenic designs in 7 panels depict a Scottish landscape of misty mountains surrounding Loch Lomond, with cattle and typical lochside cottages all on a pale blue background. This is a very good interpretation of a 19th Century mural, when friezes and murals were an integral part of the interior decorating style.
It is rumoured that a director of Arthur Sanderson & Son went on holiday to Scotland, brought back sketches of Loch Lomond and commissioned the mural from these. We have no proof of this, but it makes a good story.
Scottish Highlands is available in one colourway: Naturalistic
Original reference
number 130830.
The dimensions of each panel are:
Width: 20" (50.8cm)
Height: 10' (3.05m)

The highest point of the design is 6'4" (1.93m)
