Amsterdam Canal Houses Watercolour Canvas Print

Amsterdam Canal Houses Watercolour Canvas PrintUnlike most cityscape art, this doesn't wait for approval. The room takes on a slower, more thoughtful feel the kind of wall that makes guests pause on the way through. The soft greys, cream and warm brown sit quietly, so the piece adds character without shouting over the rest of the room. Best hung at eye level in a hallway, study or above a slim console where it gets a moment to itself. Pair with oak or walnut furniture, linen or wool textiles, and

a leather chair or a writing desk

with neat lettering top and bottom

so it suits a narrow wall between doors or windows

the deep red tomatoes and bright blue do the talking

a smug ginger

dusted with snow on cream

What to avoid: another busy patterned piece on the same wall

near oak timber

A white cat watches the snow from an arched window while a snowman in a green scarf peeps in

with pale buildings

It brings a sense of place to a room without going loud

Stretched on a solid wooden frame
