Most bear prints behave. This one picks a side. It’s a William Morris-inspired exhibition poster with a calm brown bear set inside dense woodland foliage and faded pink blooms.

Hang it and the room steadies. The deep green and warm brown pull the rest of the room together, so cushions, rugs and wood tones suddenly look like they belong to each other. The exhibition layout adds a bit of borrowed gravity without making the room feel stuffy.

It works above a sofa, in a hallway, over a writing desk, or on a feature wall in a study. Vertical shape, so narrow walls and chimney breasts are friends.

Pair it with oak or walnut furniture, linen or wool upholstery, aged leather, brass fittings and stoneware in muddy earth tones. Plaster walls in soft cream or warm grey work especially well behind it.

Don’t park it next to another large dense-pattern piece it wants a bit of breathing room on either side. The canvas finish softens the post
