Corncockle by William Morris Canvas Print

Corncockle by William Morris Canvas PrintGive the chalky off white wall one hard decision, and let everything else relax. This William Morris Corncockle reproduction does the talking, in sage green, cream, soft red and warm olive. The room around it can be quiet a painted console, a linen chair, a stack of books. It brings pattern and history without pulling the space into full English country mode. Hang it in a hallway, study, dining room or country style kitchen, somewhere you walk past

the lines stay crisp

The canvas weave softens the brushwork and reads as a real painting from across the room

the brush textures sit beautifully against a painted wall

on a chimney breast between shelves

minimalist monochrome

soft grey or pale clay

It's coral red with a point of view

It anchors a wall the way a good rug anchors a floor

the whole thing pulled into a near-black ground that lets the soft creams and pinks do the talking

Eye level over a low piece of furniture works best

Avoid hanging it next to anything overly corporate

and a chalky off-white wall
