A Philosopher Lecturing on the Orrery Solar System Tissue Paper
The title of the piece is "A Philosopher Lecturing on the Orrery". The painting was done by Joseph Wright of Derby in 1766. The painting depicts a teacher giving a lecture about the solar system to his students. The teacher is using an orrery, which is a mechanical model of the solar system. Some people believe that the teacher in the painting is modeled after John Whitehurst, but others believe it bears a resemblance to a painting of Isaac Newton. The orrery demonstration uses a lamp to mimic the sun. - This work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 100 years or fewer.

What a gorgeous pattern! Struggled a bit on match for multiple sheets required to cover the drop leaf table, but happy with result! Paper stayed true to color, the 18 lb weight is easy to work with, Art as Furniture - love it.

Love this paper I’ve been looking for something like this for a while now and it’s perfect I love the colors. I love this print I put two of the same papers together because my project was a bit bigger than the papers I ordered, but it turned out absolutely beautiful. I love it.

I loved this design. Was not sure what to do with 3, which is the minimum quantity Zazzle requires in order to print, maybe friends will ask me to make one for them! See more on my Instagram: @carlabange.
