‘Too safe,’ said nobody standing in front of deep green. The blossoms here are painted big and loose, and the dark leaves behind them do all the heavy lifting. Hung up, a flat wall stops being background the room gains depth and a bit of drama without turning dark. It works best above a sofa, a bed or a long sideboard, where the width has room to stretch. Pair it with linen, velvet, dark wood and warm metal fittings; a chalky off-white or deep green wall suits it especially well. Don’t crowd it with other busy florals or fussy patterned wallpaper. Give it space and let the brushwork read. Printed on premium fine-art paper, framed or unframed.
