The floorcloths in this series are largely based on original stencil designs created by Alfred Rasmussen and reflect design influences from 1850 - 1940. Mr. Rasmussen immigrated to the US from Denmark in 1900 and stenciled homes, public buildings, churches and banks in the Boston area. These stencils, primarily used on walls, were recently acquired by MB Historic Decor. The collection includes Victorian foliage designs, geometrics, fleur de lis, oriental influences and Gothic arches up to and including the Art Deco movement. Some floorcloths are based on original designs and other sources.
