Price History
Description
A framed reproduction print of 'The Image in Search of Itself', 1971, by Victor Pasmore, 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. Edwin John Victor Pasmore (1908–1998), CH, CBE was a British artist and architect who pioneered the development of abstract art in Britain in the 1940s and 1950s. He studied painting part-time at the Central School of Art in London and helped form the Euston Road School. After experimenting with abstraction, Pasmore worked in a lyrical figurative style, painting views of the River Thames from Hammersmith, much in the style of Turner and Whistler. Have you thought about wall hooks and fittings?
Our Stylist Says
This piece is a great example of modern abstract art that adds visual intrigue without overwhelming a space. I love how it’s versatile enough to work in contemporary, minimalist interiors, or as a striking focal point in a more eclectic setting. The black and white palette makes it easy to incorporate alongside neutral tones or bold colours, and the size ensures it can anchor a feature wall or hang above a sofa or console table. Practical styling tips include pairing it with simple, clean-lined furniture and minimal accessories to let the artwork stand out, or mixing it with textured materials like wood or ceramics for added warmth and depth. It’s an effortless way to introduce some artistic flair and modern sophistication into any room.

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.
