Description
The peace and tranquillity of this still water is magically captured in this stunning digital print. Playing on perception, the reflection of the background and colour of the sky create a dynamic image. Mike Shepard's beautiful photography aims to achieve a clear description of natural design and elemental simplicity in the landscape. Through his floral design he explores inner light, essence and ideal form. His images are simultaneously realistic and impressionistic. He was born in London 1964 and took up photography on his 16th birthday. A Lancaster University graduate, he came out with a first class honours in Eastern art and architecture, going on to teach photography, digital imaging, and digital art at the same uni. After this, he embarked on his now full time career as a landscape photographer, where he is strongly influenced by the American landscape monochrome tradition.

Our Stylist Says
I love this print for its calming, understated tone, making it a versatile addition to many interiors. It works particularly well in neutral or muted colour schemes, such as Scandi-inspired or contemporary spaces, where it can add a touch of serenity. The 65x65cm size makes it a perfect focal point above a sideboard or sofa, while its framing gives it a polished finish. For styling tips, pair with other natural textures like wool or linen soft furnishings, or complement it with minimalistic accessories for a clean, cohesive look. It’s an ideal artwork for creating a relaxed, airy atmosphere in living rooms, bedrooms, or even hallways.

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.
