Description
Have a whale of a time with this colourful framed print by Rachel Lee. 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. Made in the UK, it's ready to hang on your wall. Rachel Lee is a Sydney-based illustrator, originally from Hong Kong. Inspired by nature and wildlife, Rachel creates art with a modern take on mid-century folk art. Being a mother of two children, colour and vibrancy run through her work. She takes inspiration from her kids, along with a love of travelling and dogs. Have you thought about wall hooks and fittings?
Our Stylist Says
I love the East End Prints Rachel Lee 'Whales' for its playful yet modern aesthetic. It works particularly well in contemporary or coastal-inspired interiors, adding a splash of colour and a touch of nature’s whimsy. To style it effectively, consider pairing it with minimalist furnishings and neutral backgrounds to let the artwork stand out, or group it with other marine-themed pieces for a cohesive look. Practical tips include hanging it at eye level in a lounge or hallway to create an instant focal point, and pairing it with simple frames or spreads of textured textiles to complement its vibrant hues. Overall, it’s a versatile piece that injects fun and personality into any 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.
