Description
Longoza is a hand-painted wall art piece in soft greys and whites, showing two white horses with their heads pressed close together and their long manes blowing out to either side. A cluster of white flowers with golden centres sits in the forelock of one horse, adding the only warm note to an otherwise monochrome palette set against a pale, warm grey background. The painting is landscape in shape, 118cm long and 58cm high, and the stretched canvas is just 3cm from front to back, so it sits close to the wall rather than standing proud of it.
At 118cm long, it has the length to hold its own over a sofa, along a hallway wall or above the headboard in a bedroom, where a smaller print can look lost. The grey and white palette works with most interiors, sitting comfortably beside cool greys, soft whites, natural wood and brushed metal, and the flowers bring a gentle touch that suits a calm bedroom or a quiet reading corner. It is a good choice for anyone who loves horses but wants something softer than a photographic print, and it works well as the single focal point of a room that needs a little character. This is a piece for indoor walls.
Turn it round and you can see how it is made: the canvas is stretched over a pale timber frame with a diagonal brace across the corner, and a brass-coloured hanging bracket is fixed to the top bar. Because it is hand-painted, the brushwork shows in the sweep of the manes and the texture of the background, which gives it a depth a flat print rarely has. The whole piece weighs 1.08KG, so it is light to lift into position and needs only one wall fixing behind the bracket to hang level.
