Price History
Description
A surreal twist on vintage postcard designs, this collage-style print, 'A Summer Vacation' is by artist Ms. Gonzalez. 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. MsGonzalez is the alter ego of Paula Gonzalez, a Spanish artist based in London. Ms Gonzalez was born as a form of escapism during early pandemic times. Her art is a blend of the old with the new, mixing analogue elements with digital ones, and the odd sprinkling of UFO on '50s travel brochures. The result is colourful, fun and often quite absurd, just like life itself. Have you thought about wall hooks and fittings?

Our Stylist Says
I love this print for its vibrant, nostalgic vibe-perfect for adding a pop of colour and a sense of fun to any space. It works especially well in casual living rooms, kitchens, or even a relaxed hallway area, bringing a joyful, summery feel year-round. Practical styling tips include pairing it with minimalist furnishings to let the artwork stand out, or grouping it with other travel or holiday-themed pieces for an eclectic, gallery-style display. Its framed finish makes it ready to hang, so it’s an effortless way to add personality without fuss.

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.
