White Swans — William Morris Exhibition Art Print Color:Oak It also earns its place

It also earns its place above a desk where you want something with a bit of dry humour rather than another moody landscape

Here's the trick: let the warm orange sky cut through all that pale linen

White Swans — William Morris Exhibition Art Print Color:Oak It also earns its placeBecause Morris knew restraint, the deep green hits harder here. Two white swans meet at the centre, framed by dense leaves and pond flowers, with the gallery type pinning it down at the top and bottom. The room shifts the moment it goes up quieter, a bit older, a bit more considered. The deep green pulls the eye in and the cream of the swans gives the wall somewhere to breathe. Works best at eye level over a bed, console or sideboard, in a hallway,
