Khonsu, Egyptian Moon God Art Print
Start with the warm orange; it'll wake every brass fitting around it. This is a vintage hand-coloured plate of Khonsu, the Egyptian moon god, lifted from a 19th-century French reference book on Egyptian gods. The colour is unusually fresh for something this old — warm orange skin, deep blue headdress, soft gold disc, a green sceptre against a cream ground. Put it on a quieter wall in a study, hallway or living room and the room gains a real point of focus. Pair it with dark wood, aged brass, linen and stoneware. Avoid hanging it next to busy patterned wallpaper or other heavily figurative pieces — the figure needs a little breathing room to do its work. Printed on premium fine-art paper.
