The New York Recorder by Scotson-Clark Canvas Print

The New York Recorder by Scotson-Clark Canvas Print'Too safe,' said nobody standing in front of deep red. This is a faithful reproduction of G. F. Scotson Clark's 1895 poster for The New York Recorder a woman in a sweeping red dress cycling past bare winter trees on a deep blue ground. Hang it in a study, hallway or breakfast nook and the wall picks up real personality: a bit of late Victorian swagger, a bit of bicycle era optimism. It plays well with dark timber, aged leather, brass and chalky cream

Most illustration prints behave

brick red — does the rest

and a chrome lamp

Hangs best at eye level on a chalky off-white or soft sage wall

It loves company: a chunky ceramic vase

white furniture

Keep neighbours quiet — one busy patterned rug or a wall of family photos and the cat starts shouting over them

painted wood and terracotta pots

Let this unique piece be your daily reminder of natures beauty and your personal oasis of calm

a bright bathroom

sofa or hallway console — anywhere a single piece can carry the wall

so the room takes the warmth before you notice the image
