Three things it does fast: ground ochre gold, sharpen brass, wake the living room. The black cat’s silhouette pulls focus and the calico’s cream softens it suddenly the corner of the room you stopped noticing has a centre of gravity. Hang it above a sideboard, a low bench, or at the head of a reading chair where someone can actually look at it. Pair with warm woods, a cream linen throw, a ceramic vessel in clay or oxblood, and one trailing plant. Don’t surround it with other gold-heavy pieces let this one carry the metallic weight on its own. Gallery-wrapped canvas on a wooden frame, ready to hang.
