Price History
Description
A soft still life by Francesca Iannaccone. The perfect print to add a creative touch to your kitchen. 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 framed in obeche wood in a choice of finishes. After studying graphic design and illustration and a brief spell in book design, Francesca Iannaccone was gripped by the travel bug and wanted to do her own thing, so she spent a couple of years making and selling her “I like list” t-shirts from a stall at Portobello Market in Notting Hill, London and to shops in the UK and Australia. Her style has naturally evolved into pattern design and she now also licenses her designs for print. She has exhibited her work in London, where she lives with her husband and two boys. Have you thought about wall hooks and fittings?
Our Stylist Says
I love this print because of its bold colour palette and simple, graphic style, which adds a contemporary touch to any space. It works particularly well in modern or minimal interiors, especially if you want to introduce a pop of colour without overwhelming the room. For styling, consider pairing it with neutral furnishings or adding similar red accents elsewhere in the room for cohesion. It’s versatile enough to be a focal point above a sideboard or in a cosy nook, and I’d keep the framing simple-like the black mount-to ensure it stands out without competing with other decor elements.

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.
