Wallpaper - Cathedral Notre-Dame de Paris 2017

Our Cathedral Notre-Dame de Paris 2017 wallpaper brings the iconic silhouette of Paris’s historic Gothic masterpiece directly into your interior. Photographed by Jan Becke, the composition captures the twin stone towers, intricate rose window, and flying buttresses viewed from across the Seine. Foreground greenery with rich fern and earthy green foliage frames the riverbank and stone steps, softening the architectural stonework and balancing the pale masonry against a calm blue sky. Printed to your exact wall dimensions on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, this design brings a serene, classical perspective to any accent wall.

In the room

Because of the architectural depth and horizontal expanse of the riverbank, we see this wall mural working especially well on a wide, uninterrupted wall where the full perspective has space to unfold. In a living room, placing the design behind a low-profile sofa lets the cathedral towers and open sky remain clearly visible above the seating. It also makes a distinguished backdrop for a home library or study, where the historic subject matter naturally complements bookshelves and quiet reading nooks. In a spacious hallway or near a staircase, the receding lines of the river and stone steps create a welcoming sense of architectural depth as you move through the space.

Styling it

To let the grand scale of the cathedral and lush riverside foliage stand out, we suggest keeping the surrounding furniture visually grounded and balanced.

• Combine the mural with warm mid-tone wood or darker timber furniture, which echoes the historic character of the stone architecture and grounds the lower half of the scene.
• Keep upholstered pieces in quiet, solid textures so they do not compete with the fine stone carving, foliage, and water reflections.
• Incorporate subtle accents in antique brass, bronze, or blackened iron to pick up on the Gothic detailing without overwhelming the room.

Colour combinations

The palette of our wallpaper is anchored by the warm limestone tones of the cathedral, leafy fern greens in the foreground, soft river blues, and clear sky tones. For adjacent painted walls, we recommend muted stone, warm parchment, or soft oat tones that blend smoothly with the cathedral facade. If you prefer to draw out the natural foliage, a deep earthy olive or muted forest green on surrounding trim or cabinetry creates a grounded, cohesive look.
