Pink Brownstone, West Village Canvas Print

On a warm afternoon, the powder pink looks almost illegally fresh. Stoops, ironwork, the two black cats holding court on the pavement — it's the kind of scene that makes a quiet room feel like it has weather, neighbours and a postcode. Hang it where you pass it often: an entryway above a console, a stair landing, a narrow piece of wall between a kitchen and dining room. Pair with warm terracotta pots, a small ceramic table lamp, a stack of well-read paperbacks and one good piece of unglazed pottery. Don't crowd it with other cityscapes — let this be the only view in the room. Gallery-wrapped on a wooden frame, ready to hang.
