Seen beside linen, the cityscape loses nostalgia and gains grit. The terracotta roofs, dark green pines and chalky cream walls feel sun-warmed without tipping into postcard territory.

Hang it in a room that needs a lift without a colour overhaul. The warm orange pulls light into a quiet hallway, kitchen or dining nook, and the deep greens give it weight so it doesn't float on the wall.

Works well above a sideboard, a console or a small dining table. Eye-level in a hallway. Tall enough to anchor a narrow stretch of wall on its own.

Pair with oak or walnut furniture, woven baskets, stoneware in cream or clay, a few real plants, and walls in chalky off-white or warm plaster.

Don't crowd it with other busy prints. One quieter botanical nearby is plenty.
