Description

The New York Recorder by Scotson-Clark Art 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

mustard yellows and coral against a chalky off-white

Skip it if your room is already loud with pattern or sits in cool blue-grey — the warm greens and mustard want a calmer backdrop

which is exactly why it works on a wall

and a chocolate chip cookie where the ball should be — a quiet joke drawn in plain hand-drawn line work

It brings warmth and a bit of humour to a room without taking it over

First glance: soft pink

it brings a touch of whimsy and cultural flair to your space

or in a powder room where it sets the tone the second someone walks in

Don't try to soften it with pastel florals or busy patterned wallpaper — the green is already doing the talking

off-white blouse and deep blue skirt — confident colour

or at the end of a hallway where it can stop you in your tracks

As a stretched canvas it reads softer up close
