Defiant Marble Reverie Xed - Canvas Print

Defiant Marble Reverie Xed is a ready-to-hang canvas print of a classical Greek marble bust drawn in fine black engraving lines, with two bold white X marks struck across the eyes. The aged parchment background gives it a museum archive feel, while the cracked nose and graphic marks pull it firmly into the present.

The mood is calm and confrontational at the same time. Sepia and ink tones keep it easy to live with, so it sits comfortably against white walls, warm plaster, exposed brick or deep charcoal paint. Pair it with linen bedding, black metal, oak or leather and the whole room reads considered rather than busy.

It works best above a bed, behind a desk, in a hallway or over a sofa in a loft style living room. Choose a large size when the wall is wide and you want the face to hold the room, or a smaller size to anchor a gallery wall of monochrome prints and photography. An optional premium floating frame adds a crisp black border and a little depth.

Printed on artist grade canvas with fade resistant inks, stretched over a solid wood frame and finished with hanging hardware fitted, so it goes straight onto the wall out of the box.
