Dogue Labrador in Tweed Art Print

Yes, the photographer knew how to charm a room and how to cut. A chocolate Labrador in a tweed jacket and yellow check bow tie, captioned DOGUE in warm gold, plays the magazine-cover game with a perfectly straight face.

Put it up and the room loosens. It rewards a second look without ever taking itself seriously, and it gives a quieter wall a sense of humour without going loud or busy.

Hangs best at eye-level in a study, snug, hallway or boot room. Above a console, a writing desk or a low tan leather chair is where it really sits.

Pair with oak or walnut wood, tan leather, tartan or check cushions, brass lamps and warm cream walls. A real wood frame in oak or brown leans into the tweed without trying too hard.

Keep it away from very modern, sharp-edged rooms it wants warmth around it. Printed on premium fine-art paper, framed or unframed.
