Red Snapper and Bamboo by Hiroshige Canvas Print

Red Snapper and Bamboo by Hiroshige Canvas PrintFirst glance: deep red. Second glance: the snapper doing something smarter staring back with one wide eye while bamboo leaves drift behind it. A quiet cream wall gains a focal point, but the room stays calm because everything around the fish is restful: green leaves, a few brushstrokes of calligraphy, and lots of empty space. Hang it in a kitchen, dining room or entryway where you want one strong shot of colour against pale walls. It works beside oak

The pink-and-black combination does the heavy lifting — warm

It works against dark painted walls

The colours are gentle — cream

Hang it where people eat and gather — above a sideboard in the dining room

Pairs with oak

and the city's spires drawn with a quick

The canvas edge keeps it relaxed and easy

it warms up the space and gives guests something to read between courses

daydreamy mood

or as the single piece in a small powder room

and the water cuts through in dusty blue

bouclé and pale oak
