At late afternoon, the winter pheasant turns from nice idea to main character. The deep red head, warm brown plumage and dark backdrop pull the room in close as the lamps come on. Hang it on a hallway wall, beside a reading chair, or above a sideboard where people gather. It plays beautifully with velvet, linen, aged leather, brass and warm timber, and looks at home against deep green, chalky off-white or warm clay walls. Don’t crowd it with busy florals or competing dark posters give it breathing room and let the bird do the work. Printed as a canvas stretched over a wooden frame, ready to hang straight from the box.
