Price History
Description
Contemporary beach scene by artist Janet Gammans, printed on heavyweight canvas. Made in the UK, this canvas wrap print is mounted in a white frame, a deep frame that creates an elegant shadow gap around the picture. Arrives ready to hang on your wall. Janet began her career working in Advertising and Design in London after leaving college. Janet now works from her studio in South Cambridgeshire as a freelance artist, creating semi-abstract, impressionistic and fine art. Her original paintings are sold from galleries throughout the south of England and internationally via the web. She has become a much-recognised artist for her subject matter and her unique creative style of work. "I have come to realise that it's not what you paint that is important, but how you paint it. So in my interpretation of painting a subject, I try to maintain the essence of what first inspired me to paint it. For me, what is fundamental in paintings are light, subtlety of colour, harmony, depth and drama, while still staying true to the subject. In my finished work, I hope that I have conveyed to the viewer a sense of mood which was present at the time of painting it." Have you thought about wall hooks and fittings?
Our Stylist Says
I really like this print because of its calming colour palette and expansive composition, making it a versatile statement piece. It works particularly well in contemporary and coastal-inspired interiors, adding a touch of serenity above a neutral sofa or in a bedroom. To style it effectively, consider pairing it with minimalist furnishings and natural textures, like linen or wicker, to complement the colours. For added impact, hang it at eye level in a spacious area to allow the artwork to breathe, and keep surrounding accessories simple to let the print remain the focal point. Its size makes it ideal for large walls but can also be paired with other artworks for a gallery-style feel.

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.
