The Former Emperor

Metallic Edition

 
SKU: MTG-WP20607

Ride ferocious waves with the most intrepid of sea farers – but make sure you hold on tight; a storm is brewing. Paying homage to Japanese woodblock prints of waves popular in the 1800s, THE FORMER EMPEROR tells the story of a ruler fleeing into the night followed by a flotilla of small wooden boats, all of which traverse a powerfully rough ocean guided only by glowing red paper lanterns. Designed in traditional woodblock print style, each wave, crest and swell are classically simplistic, with the frothy foam sharply picked out in bright white and the water becoming linear blue curves, with details highlighted in gleaming metallics.

Roll calculator

How many rolls do I need?

Rolls are 48.7 cm wide and 9.0 m long. The pattern repeats every 150.0 cm on a straight match, so some length is lost matching each drop — this is counted below.

Measure each wall at its widest and the room at its tallest point. Do not deduct doors or windows — those drops still have to match the pattern.
