A single reclining figure carries the whole sheet

Don't crowd it with other busy travel prints — one strong sketch like this earns the space on its own

busy florals or heavy traditional oils — this piece wants a bit of space around it to do its job

or over a small writing desk

sage or deep green walls all flatter it

Dedie Hayden by Modigliani Art Print warrior art A single reclining figure carriesHang this where the north facing light hits and the auburn sharpens. The room slows down. Her long oval face, the soft grey green wall behind her and the deep black of her dress give a quiet weight that suits rooms with books, soft lamps and a bit of patina. Works above a low sideboard, a writing desk or a reading chair, and holds its own in a calm hallway. Pair with linen, velvet, aged leather and plaster walls in chalky off white, sage or warm grey.
