Somewhere between Matisse and folk painting, this tuxedo cat refuses to behave. Two glasses of red wine, a field of pink and mustard, and a stare that says the second glass was always the plan.

A kitchen or dining room gets a personality lift the moment this goes up. The soft pink, the deep red and the mustard pull warmth into the room without leaning twee.

Best above a sideboard, a drinks trolley, a console, or a small kitchen wall where the cat can hold court. Eye-level works; slightly low works too.

Pair with painted cabinetry, oak or walnut, brass handles, stoneware, linen, and warm cream walls. Looks great with a few houseplants nearby.

Don’t drown it in pattern let the cat be the joke in the room.
