Even the brass in here starts looking expensive next to deep red. That one strong block of colour behind the dog does the heavy lifting, so a plain wall suddenly has a focal point and a bit of humour. Hang it at eye level in a hallway, above a console in the entryway, or on a kitchen feature wall where people stand and wait. It sits happily with warm brown wood, painted cabinetry, brass handles and soft linen. Keep the rest of the wall quiet this one wants room to be funny. Avoid crowding it with other bold reds or busy patterned pieces, which flatten the joke. On fine-art paper the brushwork in the fur stays crisp and the red reads deep rather than flat.
