Evening Stroll in the City Park Canvas Print

Three things it does fast: ground soft pink, sharpen brass, wake living room. The flat blue sky reads almost like a block of paint from across the room, so a plain wall stops looking bare and starts looking deliberate. The small mustard coat and yellow windows do the rest, throwing warmth into cool grey and blue schemes. Hang it above a sofa, a low sideboard or along a hallway where people pass at eye level. Pale wood, soft grey seating, linen and matt black fittings all sit happily with it. Skip heavy gilt and busy florals nearby, and don't crowd it with small detailed pieces; it needs a little clear wall to hold its calm. Stretched canvas gives it a softer, frameless edge.
