Horned Grebe by Audubon Canvas Print Size:40x30cm / 16x12in or on a narrow stretchBecause Audubon knew restraint, the chestnut hits harder here. Two horned grebes stand against pale reeds one in breeding plumage with that warm rust collar, the other quieter in black and white. Hang it in a study or hallway and the room takes on a slower, more curious feel: part library, part field notebook. It sits well above a writing desk, a low console or a run of shelves. Pair it with aged oak, leather, linen and the odd piece of antique brass.
