Price History
Description
A vibrant image of London landmark Big Ben by Ilona Drew, framed with a mount. Born to two artists, Ilona grew up in a creative environment and both her mother's and father's work still have a huge influence on her own. She learnt valuable skills from working in the greeting card industry about making her own design decisions and about creating unique, eye-catching work. She is always pushing herself to experiment with her work and striving to create something different that stops people and, most importantly, creates a feeling of happiness.
Our Stylist Says
I love this print as it offers a charming, contemporary take on a classic London icon. Its compact size makes it versatile for various spaces, from living rooms to home offices or hallways. It works particularly well in interiors with a modern or eclectic aesthetic, where it can add a pop of colour and a touch of cultural interest. To style it effectively, consider pairing it with minimalist frames or placing it alongside more muted artwork to let its playful design stand out. It’s a great option for adding personality without overwhelming the space, especially in smaller or more casual settings.

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.
