Maiko Beach by Hiroshige Art Print

On a low winter afternoon, the deep blue of the sea looks almost illegally fresh. The twisted red pines and pale sand calm the room down before you’ve even sat. It pulls cool light into warmer corners and gives a quiet wall something to look at without shouting. Hang it at eye level above a console, low sideboard or reading chair, where the vertical pull of the trees has room to breathe. Pair it with pale oak, linen, paper shades and stoneware in soft earth tones. Skip anything glossy, primary-coloured or heavily patterned next to it the woodblock lines need a quieter backdrop to read properly. Printed on premium fine-art paper with deep, accurate colour.
