Nothing in this black, grey and white botanical whispers, even when the study does. One big fig leaf, painted in ink, holds a wall on its own without adding a single colour to the room. Put it above a desk, in a narrow hallway, or between two windows where the white background can borrow daylight. It sits happily with pale wood, black metal, linen and plain ceramics, and it gives a quiet room a bit of backbone. Keep the wall around it clear; this one loses its punch if you crowd it with busy pattern or lots of small frames. As canvas the ink washes read a little softer, with a matt surface that cuts glare.
