Rooms go quieter when dusty blue is this sure of itself. It sits against warm brown and black without shouting, so the wall reads collected rather than busy. Put it up and the room gets a bit of personality back: it turns a dressing corner, a bedroom alcove or a small study into somewhere with a point of view. Hang it at eye level above a dressing table, a chest of drawers or a slim desk, where you actually stand and look at it. Pair it with pale linen, brown leather, cane storage and a little brass. Avoid crowding it with other fashion illustrations or busy patterned wallpaper one strong voice per wall is plenty. On fine-art paper the loose brush marks and pencil lines stay crisp and detailed.
