All backgrounds have been created from textures found on famous paintings by Degas, Rosetti etc. To retain image detail, most are 300 pixels in height, which is larger than regular backgrounds.

If you have a picture/texture you think would work well like this, please let me know. A key at the end of this page shows which paintings were used.
