Gilded Peacock in Full Fan Canvas Print

Rooms go quieter when deep blue is this sure of itself. The fanned tail spreads in gold, sand and soft green, and the bird’s chest holds the middle like a full stop. Hung up, it gives a warm neutral room the one strong colour it was missing, and it does the job on its own no cluster needed. Best above a sideboard, between two windows, or on a dining room feature wall where you can stand back from it. Pair it with velvet, dark wood, brass and stoneware in warm earth tones. Don’t crowd it with other patterned art or busy wallpaper; keep the wall around it plain and let the tail open out. On canvas the thick, worked paint surface reads especially well up close.
