Price History
Description
Artist Dieter Braun captures the magical moment of a humpback whale breaching in the moonlight. This fine art-quality print on 210gsm acid-free archival paper is framed in obeche wood in a choice of finishes. The acrylic glaze is light in weight and optically the same as glass. Ready to hang on your wall, it's made in the UK in an exclusive size for John Lewis & Partners. Dieter Braun is an illustrator with a sumptuous, geometric illustrative style. His illustrations are understood in relation to conservation issues. The use of geometry within his illustrations really helps capture the physicality of each animal he draws. Have you thought about wall hooks and fittings?
Our Stylist Says
I love the whale print for its simplicity and calming colour palette, making it an ideal focal point in a living room or bedroom with a coastal or nautical theme. It works particularly well in spaces with understated decor, where it can add a touch of natural wonder without overwhelming the room. For styling, consider pairing it with soft blues, whites, and natural textures like rattan or driftwood to enhance the oceanic vibe. It’s also versatile enough to be displayed above a sofa or bed, or grouped with other marine-themed pieces for a curated gallery wall. Practical tip: use a simple black or white frame to keep it looking contemporary and let the artwork do the talking.

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.
