Price History
Description
A beach scene by photographer Lynne Douglas. Made in the UK, this print is presented in a window mount and a grey box-style frame, ready to hang on your wall. Lynne Douglas was born and raised in Scotland, although she lived in Switzerland for many years. Lynne is largely self-taught in the world of photography but spent her early years painting and drawing. In later years, she studied the work of photographers specialising in low light / long exposure image capture. This technique represented to Lynne a route that lifted straightforward documentary photographing of a scene to the realm of art. Images of drifting clouds, foaming sea and fabulous colours reminiscent of the impressionist painters filled her head. Lynne sought out every resource she could think of to find better ways to capture and present her unique vision of the world. Have you thought about wall hooks and fittings?
Our Stylist Says
I love this seaside-inspired print for its calming palette and contemporary minimalism, making it a versatile addition to various interiors. It works particularly well in living rooms, bedrooms, or even hallways where a touch of serenity is desired. The pink tones add warmth and personality, helping it stand out against neutral or pastel backgrounds. When styling, try pairing it with soft textiles or understated furniture to let the artwork be the focal point. Hanging it at eye level in a well-lit space will enhance its colours and details, creating a subtle yet impactful feature in your decor.

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.
