This lush wallpaper was installed by Lord and Lady Aberdeen in their ranch bungalow named Guischan [Goo-shi-gan] House in 1891. Lady Aberdeen wrote: "The bungalow sort of house… was really charming: kitchen, dining-room, sitting-room, hall, papered with Japanese gold and crimson papers… Then four good-sized bedrooms… and a broad verandah round three sides of the house."
