The Milkmaid by Johannes Vermeer Canvas Print

The Milkmaid by Johannes Vermeer Canvas PrintPut bluntly, your kitchen can carry more deep blue than it thinks. This is a faithful reproduction of one of the most famous paintings in Western art, and it does the heavy lifting in a quiet room. Put it up and the walls feel older and more considered. The mustard yellow warms a cool room. The deep blue grounds it. The off white background keeps everything from getting heavy. It sits well above a sideboard, on a kitchen feature wall, or in a study

or in a hallway by the front door

A quiet hallway turns into a small holiday

the abstract turns from nice idea to main character

or beside the back door on the way out to the garden

The canvas weave softens the painted edges nicely

it instantly brings life and personality to any corner

and the whole scene sits under a soft

a kids' room or a sunny family corner — anywhere you want warmth and a sense of childhood without nursery clichés

The deep red and warm pink stripes pull the eye up

this daisy pattern belonged to another kind of home — painted panelling

the corners get deeper

brass fittings and heavy textiles
