Cytises et Digitales by Verneuil Art Print

With this Art Nouveau botanical, scale decides whether the bedroom wakes up. Hung at the right size, the mustard dress and laburnum blossoms warm the wall the way a low afternoon sun warms plaster slow, golden, considered. Hang at eye-level above a low dresser, an upholstered bench, or to one side of a bed where the vertical foxglove spires lengthen the wall. Pair with oak or rattan, washed linen in cream, dusty-pink ceramics, and one piece of antique brass. Avoid hanging it against a saturated jewel-tone wall the ochres lose their hush, and the print stops reading as a Belle poque garden and starts arguing with the paint. A black frame holds the ochres beautifully.
