1961-chinese-prince144.jpg1961-chinese-prince-2145.jpgIn vintage ads from 1957 and 1961, I picked up on these awesome Chinese Emperors as decorative art for living rooms. Aren’t the colors and graphics extraordinary? To be sure, Asian influences became very common around this time.

Palm Springs Stephan clues us into their history, and where to get them. Very cool.

Note, I swear I just saw this same style of art in a photo from Martha Stewart Living posted somewhere on the web, so we are not the only ones onto it again today.
