Price History
Description
From the London Transport Museum archive, the 'Art Today' poster was published in 1966, promoting travel to the capital's contemporary art galleries. The design, by the prolific artist Hans Unger, takes the form of a diagram charting avant-garde art movements. The colours and font make it instantly recognisable as a section of the Tube map. An officially licensed museum-quality framed fine art print. Made in the UK, the print is glazed and presented in a solid, hand-stained ash wood frame, ready to hang on your wall. Have you thought about wall hooks and fittings?
Our Stylist Says
I love this print because it offers a vibrant, modern take on classic pop art with strong colours and bold shapes. It works particularly well in contemporary or eclectic interiors, adding a playful yet sophisticated touch. For styling, consider hanging it above a neutral sofa or a minimalist console to let the artwork stand out, or pair it with vintage objects to elevate an eclectic vibe. Its size makes it versatile for flats or living rooms, and pairing it with simple framing keeps the focus on the artwork’s lively design. Overall, it's a great statement piece that can inject colour and personality into any 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.
