Back in the 1950s, this kind of travel poster belonged to another kind of home railway waiting rooms, travel agents on the high street, and a few well-travelled hallways. Pinned up by people who actually went, or wanted to.

Put it on the wall and a tired corner suddenly has somewhere to be. The terracotta, mustard and coral houses do most of the heavy lifting, the deep blue water settles the room, and the small boats give the eye something to hold.

Works best in a hallway, kitchen, or a living room that needs a bit more warmth and a clear focal point. Hang it at eye level on a plain wall so the colour stack reads cleanly.

Pair it with linen sofas, pale oak, terracotta planters, a bit of brass, and stoneware. Off-white or chalky cream walls flatter the warm side of the palette without dulling it.

Don’t fight it with another loud picture next to it this one wants to be the thing you notice. On canvas the colour blocks feel soft
