Lucien Feitussi (Kunst)

*****
For more than 10 years, Lucien Feitussi worked with Nancy McClelland, a prominent importer of antique wallpapers in the United States, Europe and China, painting scenics, creating designs for museums and restoring antique wallpapers in the studio as well as in some of the most elegant homes in New York and the United States. In 1972, McClelland commissioned Feitussi to design a wall covering for the Blue Room of the White House in Washington, D.C. He signed the paper “Lucien Feitussi, May 11, 1972” in a spot by the main door. In 2008, his tableau, A Tapestry of Sorts, was exhibited in the Louvre Museum in Paris, France.
