Posters castle

The castle dresses a wall with recognisable silhouettes: towers, keeps, stone fortresses and formal gardens. Stone, slate and deep green tones suit a classic as well as a contemporary interior, from living room to office, in vertical or horizontal format.

How to choose your castle poster

Which castle poster should you choose?

The castle comes in several registers, carried by quite different silhouettes:

  • Medieval castle poster: crenellated towers, central keep, machicolations, a defensive silhouette typical of the Middle Ages.
  • Loire Valley castle poster: Renaissance facade, slate roofs, formal gardens.
  • Ruined castle poster: crumbling stones, an isolated tower amid vegetation, a romantic and melancholic atmosphere.
  • Castle garden poster: geometric flower beds, gravelled paths, open perspective onto the facade.
  • Fortified castle poster: an imposing fortress, thick ramparts, a watchtower overlooking the landscape.
  • Illustrated castle print: fine line, soft palette, stylised silhouette rather than precise photographic rendering.

The filters on the left narrow the choice by colour, style and room.

Where to hang a castle poster?

  • Living room: a large horizontal format, facade or garden, above the sofa.
  • Office: a keep or tower silhouette, understated next to the screen.
  • Bedroom: a ruined castle in soft tones, for a calm atmosphere.
  • Entrance: a fortified castle with strong contrasts, to set the tone from the doorway.
  • Hallway: a series of towers in the same format, aligned.

Tip: a stone or slate tone suits most light-coloured walls.

Vertical or horizontal format for a castle poster?

  • An isolated tower or keep suits a vertical format, which accentuates the height of the building.
  • A facade with a garden reads better in horizontal format, which leaves room for the perspective.
  • On a narrow wall, a tower silhouette works better than a wide view.
  • On a large wall section, a facade with a garden fills the space without looking cramped.
  • For a very wide facade, the 100x140 polyptych format spreads the scene across several panels.

Poster, print or artwork: what is the difference?

All three words describe the same thing here: a printed image that you hang on the wall. We call it a poster because we print on photo paper, never on canvas. The same image also exists on a metal plate, in several sizes.

  • With frame: black, white or light oak, mounted and ready to hang.
  • Without frame: the sheet alone, to slide into the frame you already have.
