The vine motifs in this stripe were inspired by an ink drawing from the archives of Farkas-Ortenzi, a textile art studio in Como, Italy known for crisp, graphic designs. The tiny dots between stripes form a “piqué” ground. This effect was common in copper plate print designs of the 1770s, as it helped to conceal defects. Like the street it is named for, this curvy, rolling stripe invites the eye to wander.
