Flower Market by Owen Jones, 1867 Canvas PrintEven the linen in here starts looking expensive next to coral red. That's what this Owen Jones peony pattern does it turns a plain wall into the bit of the room people actually look at. The trailing vines and stone grey leaves keep things calm, and the red peonies do the heavy lifting. Hang it in a hallway, above a bed, or on a bright kitchen wall where there's a bit of off white to play against. It works with oak, pale ash, linen, rattan and soft

big graphic prints

Second glance: the bathers doing something smarter — sharing a pool with them

Hang it on a narrow wall in an entryway

marble worktops and anything black — painted cabinets

and a tidy palette of beige and oat gets a friendly jolt of colour without losing its calm

The line work is light

no glossy mirrors

one tall bell tower

A quiet room picks up a clear focal point

and stoneware in chalky off-white

It also plays well as a seasonal piece around Christmas without being twee

A lovely keepsake for anyone who has wandered Alfama on holiday
