Price History
Description
Skyscrapers dominate this abstract urban scene by artist Gregory Lang, printed on canvas and float mounted in a frame. Gregory Lang is an American painter, best known for his urban landscape paintings. A New England native, Gregory was influenced by the region’s industrial surroundings before, at age 19, he moved to Berlin to study architecture - arriving only fourteen months after the fall of the Berlin Wall. Whilst in Berlin, Lang was exposed to a great deal of the underground outsider art emerging from the East and this had a big influence on his work. Today, editions of his urban landscape paintings are printed and distributed to over 70 countries worldwide. Lang’s abstract paintings create a statement on a wall. Have you thought about wall hooks and fittings?
Our Stylist Says
I love this piece because its muted grey palette and modern cityscape design make it versatile for a range of interiors. It works particularly well in minimalist, contemporary, or industrial-style spaces, where its understated tones can complement neutral colour schemes or add a subtle focal point. When styling, consider hanging it above a sofa or sideboard to create a visually balanced feature wall. For added impact, pair it with other grey or monochrome accessories, like cushions or vases, to keep the look cohesive. Its large size makes it ideal for spacious rooms or to serve as a statement piece in a smaller living area, enhancing the overall aesthetic 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.
