Description
A vintage-style, space-inspired print by artist Indie Prints, celebrating the lyrics of David Bowie's early 1980s hit 'Ashes to Ashes'. 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. Indie Prints is a London-based artist with a clear passion for his surroundings and culture. Influenced by retro rock posters, typography and wall art, his work has a striking vintage feel to it. He combines the individual style of music bands with typography to create stunning visuals for songs and their perceived meaning. Have you thought about wall hooks and fittings?
Our Stylist Says
I love this piece because of its bold, graphic design and slightly humorous take on a space theme - it really adds an unexpected touch to a variety of interiors. It’s versatile enough to work well in a modern, minimalist space or as a quirky feature in a more eclectic room. When styling, consider pairing it with neutral backgrounds or simple furnishings to let the print stand out. It also works great hung solo over a sideboard or console table, or grouped with other prints for a gallery wall. Practical tip: opt for a neutral or light-toned frame to complement the natural wood surround, which keeps the focus on the artwork without overwhelming the space.

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.
