Cerfs et Arbres by Verneuil Art Print

Cerfs et Arbres by Verneuil Art PrintThere's a reason Verneuil kept returning to stags; rooms still respond. Hung in a room of oak and aged leather, the rust red, ochre and moss tones warm everything they touch, and the rhythm of paired deer settles the wall down rather than busying it up. Best on a feature wall in a study, snug or panelled hallway somewhere with chalky plaster, deep green paint or warm wood to meet its autumn palette. Pair it with brass picture lights, vintage

or beside a bathtub on a tiled wall

and stoneware in pinks or sea-glass green

the casual signature — it brings a small wink to wherever you hang it

Soft pink linen and a few brass touches keep it from going full bubblegum

it keeps that hand-painted softness intact

Rooms go quieter when black-and-white type is this sure of itself

ready for your favourite frame

or above a hallway console where people pause

The white space does a lot of work

a dining nook beside the window

Don't crowd it with other cityscapes — let this be the only view in the room

a kitchen breakfast nook or a hallway near the back door
