    The young lady from How To Renovate a Chateau (RUclips) makes her own wall paper and has a degree in design. She may be able to help you with the designs on the paper. She lives in France with her family, is very sweet. Can't hurt to ask her for some help.

    As an artist, I really enjoyed this exchange between, Michael and Billy. There just isn't enough appreciation of the old art and craft works in the world. So much of what we take for granted in our modern world, such as rolls of wallpapers, ceramic tiles or even the simple pencil are creations of a bygone age that we utilise in some form or other today.

    What a great Idea Billy, Michael could do a class - conservation is a life long learning experience and they could learn from him and he in turn might learn from them. They could do trips together to artisan places to learn even more. Not that your brother isn't busy enough with his cottage, green house, Chateau Kitchen, Decorating Chateau Bedrooms for guests, sealing the Terrace and making preparations for the Chapel Ceiling.. He might have time to teach a class or two if Mortimer behaves and doesn't have Michael in with the cows lol

    Michael shied away, but Billy had a great idea. A large room in the convent built for Michael to teach others how to conserve the old wallpapers. Michael has a lot of knowledge he can share - he needs to share! - with others to help perpetuate the conservation of historic things. Many people want to do it but don’t know how to go about it and Michael is a wealth of information on many different historical topics. You are a very interesting person, Michael, and others would be lucky to learn from you.

    Don't you have those rolls of paper on shelves in the room that the hidden room was? As brothers I don't think I've seen two that work so well together. ❤

    William & Morris wall paper is Divine. It's designed in the 1800s and you can purchase it new.

    I love that you are going to work on preserving the wallpaper. My parents had to recently take down my grandparents old farm house here in America that was over 200 years old and was a log cabin built before the Civil war era and was once owned by a civil war physician. The old wallpaper in the upstairs bedroom that was once my mother's room as a child, my father took a portion of the drywall with the wallpaper and made a shadow box and gave myself and each of my sisters a shadow box for Christmas this past year with two different kinds of wallpaper from the old farmhouse and the shadowbox has clear glass on each side so we can turn it whenever to display the two different prints. I made a label with the information about the old house for our children and grandchildren to have as a keepsake of their heritage after when have passed on. You all have so much talent and Michael's historical knowledge and artistic talent is a great bonus for you all with these historical buildings a prized possession for sure having Michael in your family.

    Love the idea of Michael having studio space at the convent; he could give painting and drawing workshops too.

    What a procedure to preserve the wallpapers! Sounds very time consuming and meticulous, but no fear or worries, Michael is doing it himself.

    Have you considered contacting historical restorers that might know if those patterns might exist elsewhere? Maybe someone has samples of them already and could be re-printed? 🤔

    Looks almost like William Morrison's wallpaper. Once you digitize the paper I hope you make it available to purchase the digis. These would be perfect for some of my art projects.

    For the wallpaper resto try Photoshop generative fill instead. Just snap a photo of each paper and crop it then do generative fill

      Probably something like 2h job if you do it this way

    All of them are beautiful in their own way I hope all can be preserved and prints made aside from wallpapers. You could reproduce them as cards and sell them or prints sure enough people will buy including myself possibly depending on how they come out.
    Michael is so clever like you Billy can do anything you set your minds to all of you Pethericks are genius levels. So kind of you to do all of it most others might not.
    Who knows if you figured out where it comes from and manage to reproduce them as wallpapers it might come back on trend. All of them would look beautiful in your chateau rooms or convent guest rooms or WC :)
    Have a lovely weekend and glad you are taking a bit of a break after so much hard work on the library and chateau.
    👌👌😍😍👏👏
