Styling

A study, a dining room or a hallway with good light will let this print command the wall. Pair it with warm wood, a leather armchair, or a mirror with a gilded edge for a period-flavoured scheme. Because it is supplied without a frame, a deep black or walnut frame with a generous mount will give it presence. It can also anchor the centre of a gallery wall of smaller prints.
