„My wallpaper and I are fighting a duel to the death. One or the other of us has to go.“
Oscar Wilde, lying in a fleapit hotel on the left bank of the Seine, took a look at his surroundings and said: “My wallpaper and I are fighting a duel to the death. One or the other of us has to go.” It was the most Wildean of comments: arch, funny, tasteful and poignant. And 100 years after he died, he had the last word when the cursed wallpaper was replaced by red, blue, green and gold frescos based on designs by his friend Aubrey Beardsley. theguardian.com
