About This Art

In the 1960s, this would have felt radical. It still does. A seated figure in a checkerboard jacket and straw hat, hands folded, legs crossed — calm, unbothered, fully himself.

Hang it and the room gets a voice. The dusty red background warms up plaster walls and soft pinks; the mustard and cream pattern picks up oak, brass, and tan leather without trying.

It earns a feature spot — above a sideboard, behind a reading chair, or on a hallway wall where you want a pause. Eye-level is best; the gaze does the rest.

Pair it with simple, grounded furniture: a low timber bench, a linen armchair, a stoneware lamp. Keep the styling around it quiet.

Don't crowd it with other patterned art or anything fussy — this one carries the wall on its own. Printed on thick fine-art paper with a soft matte finish.

Printing, Paper and Frames

Quality you can see (and feel)
Printed using museum-grade giclée technology on thick, matte art paper - no glare, just soft, natural colour that looks beautiful.

The kind of detail and depth that makes people lean in closer. Hand-framed in solid FSC-certified wood. Never cheap MDF or plastic-y veneers.

Won't fade, even in direct sunlight
Premium acrylic glaze with UV blocking keeps colours vibrant for 100+ years. Hang it anywhere - bedroom, hallway, that sunny spot above the sofa - without worry.

Unbox, hang, done
Arrives framed with fixtures already attached. Two minutes with a hammer and your wall goes from blank to "where did you get that?"

Made responsiblyFSC-certified wood and paper. Water-based, vegan inks. Crafted to order, so there's zero waste and zero guilt.

How do I frame an art print?

Good news—you don’t have to!

All of our prints are available professionally framed and ready to hang, so you can skip the trip to the framing shop and get straight to the fun part: styling your space. Here’s more info about our frames and service:

  • Your choice of timeless frames - natural wood, black, white, brown, silver and, of course, gold.
  • We use shatter-resistant acrylic glazing keeping delivery costs down and shielding your print from fading or sun damage—something cheaper glazes just don’t do.
  • Every frame is carefully sealed on the back using acid-free, archival tape —keeping dust and moisture out and your print beautifully preserved.
  • Hanging hardware already attached so just unbox, hang, and enjoy.

Prefer to frame it yourself? That’s totally fine too—we offer unframed prints in standard and A-sizes that fit most frames you can buy.

What makes Fab frames so good?

Not all frames are created equal. Many cheap frames are made with acidic materials or glazes that lack UV protection—meaning your beautiful print could fade, discolor, or deteriorate over time.

At Fab, we do things differently. Our frames are thoughtfully built to preserve and protect your artwork for the long haul. We use FSC-certified wood, 100% acid-free materials, and a UV-protective glaze to keep your print looking vibrant for decades.

That’s why our prints have an 80+ year archival lifespan—no fading, no yellowing, just art you’ll love for years to come.

If you're investing in art you love, it's worth framing it right.

How do I hang art prints?

It’s easier than you think—especially since our framed prints arrive ready to hang straight out of the box.

Here’s how to do it in a few simple steps:

  1. Pick a wall that needs a little love—above a sofa, bed, desk, or entryway works great.

  2. Make sure the space suits the size of your print (our size guide can help). Use painter’s tape or a pencil to mark where you want the top of the frame to sit.

  3. For single prints, aim for eye level (around 57–60 inches from the floor). Every Fab framed print comes with hanging hardware already attached.

Use a picture hook, nail, or adhesive wall strips, depending on your wall type and the weight of the frame. That’s it—your space just got a whole lot more beautiful.

Bonus tip: For a gallery wall, lay your prints on the floor first to plan your layout before committing to the wall

Will the dusty red background overwhelm a small room?

It's a warm, muted red rather than a bright one, so it tends to wrap a small room rather than shrink it. In a snug study or narrow hallway, it actually reads as a focal point against plaster or soft pink walls. If your room is already deep red, this isn't the piece — give it a calmer wall to sit on.

Does the figure look directly at the viewer?

The gaze is slightly off — eyes set under the hat brim, looking out and just past you. It gives the portrait presence without feeling confrontational, which is why it works above a sideboard or in a hallway where you pass it daily. It holds attention but doesn't demand it.

Is this better hung solo or in a group?

Solo. The figure is large, patterned and self-contained — it carries a wall on its own and tends to fight any companion piece. If you want to bring in another artwork nearby, keep it small, quiet, and at least a metre away on a different wall.
