Description
A vintage illustration of a curious American Flamingo by renowned American ornithologist and painter John James Audubon. This unglazed print is finished with hand-applied texturing and presented in traditional-style black and antique gold frame, ready to hang on your wall. John James Audubon (1785-1851) was a self-trained American artist, naturalist and ornithologist. His combined interests in art and ornithology turned into a plan to make a complete pictorial record of all the bird species of North America. Have you thought about wall hooks and fittings?
Our Stylist Says
I love this flamingo print for its bold colour and vintage feel, making it a striking focal point in both modern and traditional interiors. It works particularly well in eclectic schemes, bohemian spaces, or even alongside other nature-inspired artwork. For styling, consider pairing it with muted or neutral backgrounds to let the pink pop, or introduce matching accessories like cushions or vases for a cohesive look. Position it above a sideboard or within a gallery wall to give it prominence, and don’t be afraid to mix frames for a layered effect. Its sizeable dimension makes it perfect for grounding a feature wall in living rooms or bedrooms, adding colour and personality with a touch of vintage charm.

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.
