Because the painter knew restraint, the bright yellow hits harder here. The sea and hills are kept soft and washed out, so the lemons and the tiled wall carry all the punch. Hung up, it gives a room a window it did not have the wall feels warmer, and cool grey daylight starts to read as sunshine. It earns its keep in a kitchen, above a sideboard in a dining room, or at the end of a bright hallway. Pair it with painted cabinets, blue and white china, rattan seating and a few terracotta pots. Skip busy patterned wallpaper next to it and avoid crowding it with other blue-and-yellow prints; one strong view is enough. As a canvas the surface stays matt, so it holds up in a sunny kitchen.
