Blue posters
Blue seen by our artists: deep seas, cyanotypes, summer skies and ink nights. A blue print calms a room and opens it up, without chilling it. Every print is made to order in our workshop in Fayence, on 270 g photo paper with a semi-matte finish.
Choosing your blue print
Which blue poster should you choose?
Blue covers very different registers, and each one sets up a world of its own:
- Blue Matisse poster: cut gouaches, a blue nude, silhouettes and bold flat colour.
- Klein blue poster: a deep monochrome, dense texture, matter almost in the raw.
- Sky and clouds poster: horizon, diffuse light, soft gradations.
- Blue Miró poster: abstract shapes, vivid flat colour, playful composition.
- Navy and midnight blue: dark grounds, strong contrast with a pale frame.
- Pastel blue and clear sky: washed-out tones, a calm atmosphere.
The filters on the left narrow things down by shade of blue, by style and by artist.
Where should you hang a blue poster?
- Bedroom: a pastel blue or a clouded sky, for a settled mood.
- Living room: a blue Matisse or a Miró in a large size, above the sofa.
- Office: a Klein blue in a small size, beside the screen.
- Bathroom: a deep blue, the room where the colour falls most truly.
- Entrance: a navy blue, which sets the tone from the threshold.
Tip: a deep blue absorbs light and darkens a small room. Keep it for walls that are already well lit.
Light blue or deep blue poster?
- Light blue visually enlarges a room and goes with almost any wall.
- Deep blue, like Klein blue, needs a neutral wall so as not to crush the space.
- In a small size (21x30 or 30x40), deep blue keeps its intensity even from a distance.
- In a large size (50x70, 70x100 or the 100x140 polyptych), light blue stays readable without saturating the wall.
Poster, print or picture: what is the difference?
All three words mean the same thing here: a printed image that you hang on the wall. We say poster because we print on photo paper, never on canvas. The same image is also available on a metal plate, in several sizes.
- With frame: black, white or light oak, assembled and ready to hang.
- Without frame: the sheet alone, to slide into the frame you already have.
