La Dolce Vita Italian Feast Art Print

Back in the 1960s, this Italian food illustration belonged to another kind of home. It would have been a trattoria menu card or a holiday poster, not a wall piece. Put it up and a kitchen or dining wall stops feeling purely practical. The lemon yellow and soft pink lift off-white walls, and the pink lettering gives the wall a clear centre. Hang it above a sideboard, a run of open shelving or a small dining table, at eye level so the little details reward a close look. Pair it with painted cabinetry, pale wood, patterned tiles and plain stoneware. Don’t crowd it with other busy prints or heavy dark furniture it needs a bit of quiet around the edges. On fine-art paper the loose brushwork and paper texture stay crisp.
