Description
Bring the love with this retro-themed typographic print by Frances Collett. The giclée art printing process and 210gsm acid-free archival paper create an exhibition-quality art print with long-lasting colours that more closely resemble the artist's materials and tones. A digital form of the original work is stored and then printed using a commercial printer and pigment-based inks. The print is presented with an acrylic glaze that's optically the same as glass yet lighter in weight making it easier and safer to hang. Ready to hang on your wall, it's made in the UK in an exclusive size for John Lewis & Partners, and framed in obeche wood in a choice of finishes. Frances Collett is a designer and artist based in Bristol, UK. Her signature style of retro and Scandinavian imagery can be found printed on photographic prints, greetings cards and her range of homeware. The choice of colours and shapes that Frances uses are influenced by the various media that she works with, from digital manipulation to acrylic on canvas and ceramics. All Frances Collett products are proudly made in the UK, with the additional help of other small independent businesses. Have you thought about wall hooks and fittings?
Our Stylist Says
I love this print for its bold, retro-inspired colour palette and straightforward message-perfect for adding a pop of personality to both contemporary and eclectic interiors. It works particularly well in living rooms or bedrooms with mid-century or vintage touches, but can also bring cheerful energy to more minimal spaces. When styling, consider pairing it with neutral backgrounds or mid-tone woods to let the colours really stand out. It also pairs nicely with simple frames or even layered with other artwork for a more curated look. This print is versatile, eye-catching, and easy to incorporate into a variety of interior styles.

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.
