Price History
Description
This beautiful sketch detail print shows off London's skyline, presented in an MDF wrapped box frame with decorative black wood grain finish. Born in 1967, Catherine Stephenson has lived in Yorkshire all her life. She began her artistic journey experimenting with watercolours, before pursuing a career in stained-glass design. More recently, her success with her watercolour and ink paintings of quirky street and harbour scenes rank her as a very popular and versatile artist. Have you thought about wall hooks and fittings?
Our Stylist Says
I love this London sketch print for its clean, understated style that adds a touch of urban sophistication without overwhelming a space. Its narrow, elongated format makes it perfect for narrower walls or above sideboards and fireplaces. It works especially well in contemporary or minimalist interiors, but can also bring a chic, city vibe to eclectic or industrial spaces. Practical styling tips include pairing it with simple black or white frames to keep the focus on the sketch, and hanging it at eye level for maximum impact. It also pairs beautifully with monochrome palettes or softer muted tones, making it versatile enough to suit most modern city-inspired interiors.

About John Lewis
A Legacy of Innovation and Inclusion
John Lewis started as a small shop on London's Oxford Street in 1864. Today, it's part of a bigger family called the John Lewis Partnership, which also includes Waitrose stores.
What makes them special is that they're owned by their employees, known as 'Partners'. The idea, from the beginning, was to give everyone a say in how the business was run. With over 74,000 Partners (employees) at the heart of its operations, the essence of John Lewis's vision, from over a century ago, still echoes today being the largest employee-owned venture.
Adapting to Changing Times
Like many stores, John Lewis has had to change with the times. They've closed some shops but have grown their online business a lot, especially when more people started shopping online during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Their history is filled with key moments, like buying Peter Jones in 1905, adding Waitrose in 1937, and starting their website in 2001. They've always tried to adapt and stay relevant.
Commitment to a Greater Purpose
John Lewis believes in doing good and making the world a better place. This is seen in the way they treat their employees and customers. For example, in 2021, they were the first big UK store to give parents six months paid leave when they have a baby and two weeks paid leave if they lose a pregnancy. They've been around for over a century and always aim to do the right thing by everyone.
