Peacock, Demon and Guardian Lions Art Print

Peacock, Demon and Guardian Lions Art PrintPut bluntly, your living room can carry more soft pink than it thinks. This vintage Japanese woodblock scene mixes a green peacock, a pink demon, two guardian lions, a cat in a kimono and a single peony all on a warm cream ground. It brings warmth, story and a sense of humour without shouting. Hang it above a sofa, console or sideboard in a room that already has wood, linen or warm cream walls. It sits well alongside other Japanese woodblock work,

It's a strong fit for a downstairs loo

It also earns its place in a small study or a plant-filled hallway

where the horizontal pull of the road can settle into the furniture line

painted timber shelves

stoneware and soft white textiles

set against a soft yellow-green wash that feels like late spring sunlight on a kitchen wall

There's a reason modern figurative painters keep returning to the everyday walker

and a few ceramics in primary colours

Hang it at child eye-level in a kids' room

with two little potted plants perched on top

the last storybook

What to pair with it: oak or walnut wood
