Price History
Description
An abstract work giving the sense of theatre curtains parting and drama about to begin, 'au Theatre' is by Nils Jean. Museum-quality framed and glazed in the UK, this fine art print is ready to hang on your wall. Language and memory are recurrent themes in Nils Jean's paintings. A graduate of the Royal College of Art in London (Ph D in Visual Communication), Jean approaches painting as a form of writing. His work combines visual diaries and analytical explorations of art movements such as Cubism, Fauvism and Conceptual Art. Working in acrylic on canvas, Jean's strong use of colour and pattern are influenced by his time studying fashion at Studio Berçot in Paris and subsequently working as a womenswear designer, prior to moving to London to focus on the arts. Have you thought about wall hooks and fittings?
Our Stylist Says
I love this piece because its bold, energetic colours and abstract shape make it a striking focal point in any room. The red and multi tones lend themselves well to contemporary and eclectic interiors, especially when paired with neutral furnishings to let the artwork stand out. It works really well in living rooms, dining areas, or even a modern home office. For styling tips, consider layering with other art or textured accessories, and keep surrounding decor minimalist to highlight its visual impact. The black frame adds a sleek finish that complements both modern and more understated interiors.

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.
