Baby (Cradle) by Gustav Klimt Canvas Print

Baby (Cradle) by Gustav Klimt Canvas PrintTest it this way: if the nursery feels safe, size up. Klimt's late painting of a baby peeping out from a heap of patchwork blankets brings real warmth and a lot of colour to a quiet room. The yellows, blues, pinks and soft greens lift pale walls without shouting, and the loose brushwork keeps it gentle rather than busy. Hang it above a low dresser, a changing table or alongside a cot, at a height that works when you're sitting down feeding. Pair with

where turquoise water meets a pale sandy shore and white surf does the rest

This is a piece that wants room around it

This is a risograph-style sunrise in hot pink

the design studio knew how to charm a room — and how to cut

A trailing plant nearby finishes it

This one wants a bit of personality

Dinner walls shift around it

Don't crowd it with other busy abstracts or strong colour blocks

The cream background lifts pale paint

the period feel needs a bit of breathing room

The fork and twisting yellow noodles pull the eye up and away from clutter

Don't surround it with other busy patterns or competing landscapes — it wants room to breathe
