    About This Art

    Too much beige. Not enough deep green. This fixes that. Two small sparrows on a grape vine, with broad green leaves and dusty blue berries — a Plate from Audubon's Birds of America.

    A room that's gone a bit flat in cream and oat suddenly has something to look at. The green pulls in any houseplants nearby, the dusty blue berries give the eye a cooler point to land on, and the small birds keep the whole thing feeling alive rather than decorative.

    Hangs well above a writing desk, a small console in a hallway, or on a bedroom wall where you want quiet detail rather than a big statement. Eye level is best — this one rewards a closer look.

    Pair it with oak or walnut furniture, linen upholstery, a stoneware lamp, and any real greenery you've got going. It sits naturally next to other botanical or vintage natural-history prints.

    What not to do: don't drown it in a busy gallery wall of loud modern graphics. It wants room to breathe. A premium fine-art paper print, framed behind acrylic glazing.

    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

    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

    How prominent are the two sparrows — can you see them from across the room?

    The birds sit in the upper third of the composition and are detailed rather than bold, so from across a large room they read as small accents inside the green foliage. Hang at eye level, ideally within a metre or two of where you'll usually be — at a desk, in a hallway, or beside a bed — so the detail rewards a closer look.

    Will the green leaves clash with a room that already has lots of houseplants?

    No — the greens in the print are soft and slightly olive rather than bright, so they tend to echo real foliage rather than fight it. If anything, the print makes a room with plants feel more deliberate. The dusty blue berries and pale cream ground give the eye a break from pure green.

    Does the original plate text and Latin name show on the print?

    Yes. The faint engraved title 'White-crowned Sparrow', the Latin name Fringilla leucophrys, and the plate number are preserved at the foot of the composition, along with the cream margin. It's a faithful reproduction of the historic plate rather than a cropped, modernised version.
