Back in the 1960s, this abstract belonged to another kind of home. Twenty-four hand-painted squares in clay, mustard, warm brown and cream, set out in a loose grid with brushy edges. Hang it and a plain wall stops being plain you get pattern and warmth without a single busy detail to catch on. It earns its keep on a big empty wall: above a sofa, behind a sideboard, or on the long wall of an open-plan room. Pair it with tan leather, cane, linen and stoneware, and let one of its browns turn up again in a cushion or rug. Don’t crowd it with small framed pieces, and don’t hang it beside another strong pattern the grid needs clear wall to read properly. As a canvas the weave suits the painted, unfinished edges.
