Price History
Description
A framed print of 'The Line of the Plough', exhibited in 1919, by Sir Arnesby Brown, from the Tate collection. Made in the UK exclusively for John Lewis. The black frame is made of FSC-certified solid ayous wood, sourced from sustainably managed forests. Framed with a card mount and glass front, it arrives ready to hang on your wall. A leading British landscape artist of the twentieth century, Alfred Arnesby Brown (1866–1955) is best known for his pastoral landscapes, which often featured cattle. He studied at the Nottingham School of Art, then at the Bushey School of Art, first exhibiting at the Royal Academy in 1890. He became an elected Associate there in 1903 and was knighted in 1938. Sadly, due to blindness, Arnesby Brown did not paint after 1942. Have you thought about wall hooks and fittings?
Our Stylist Says
I love this print for its calm, nostalgic feel and its ability to add a touch of traditional charm to a room. It works particularly well in country-inspired or rustic interiors, but can also bring warmth to more contemporary spaces when paired with neutral tones and wooden accents. Practical styling tips include placing the print above a sofa or sideboard for visual impact, or grouping it with other artwork to create a gallery wall. Keep the surrounding colour palette simple to let the image stand out, and consider pairing it with matte black or wooden frames for a cohesive look. This piece offers a lovely sense of story and tradition, making it a versatile addition to various interiors.

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.
