Meet King and Princess Leopold as well The Duke and The Duchess. All of noble lineage, aristocratically well posed with just the right amount of wtf when you try and meet their gaze..

Hang The Duchess somewhere she can hold court – a dressing room, a moody bedroom, or the wall above a console in a hallway where guests stop and stare. Her palette is a conversation in itself: sage and washed jade greens, warm antique gold, deep rust brown, and flashes of coral and hot pink cutting through a softly clouded, grey-green background, all pulled together by the graphic black-and-white stripes and houndstooth that give the piece its glorious anachronistic jolt. That grey-green ground means she sits beautifully against walls in the same dusty sage family – deeper or paler than the print itself works equally well, holding the whole thing in a tonal embrace. The warm gold and rust tones will sing against a wall in aged terracotta or warm putty with a yellow undertone, while the cooler jade and teal accents mean a dark slate blue-green wall can carry her without a fight. She’s a natural in eclectic, maximalist, and neo-baroque interiors, and equally at home in a collected, gallery-style space where old and new share the same wall without apology. Part of the Noblesse Oblige collection – a series for people who love the old masters with a generous side of what-the-actual, stripes and all – she pairs with other prints from the collection for a gallery wall that’s equal parts grandeur and mischief. She makes a genuinely considered gift for anyone who decorates with personality and a sense of humour.

Printed on Enhanced Matte art paper using archival pigment inks, this is a smooth, gallery-grade stock with a soft, glare-free surface that reads as quietly serious without being precious – the kind of finish the industry considers museum-grade, and one that works with both a slim black lacquer frame and an ornate gilded one, the latter being entirely appropriate here. At A3 (29.7 × 42 cm) she slips neatly onto a shelf or into a grouped gallery arrangement; A2 (42 × 59.4 cm) is the sweet spot for a bedside wall or the kind of mid-height hang that draws the eye at seated height; A1 (59.4 × 84.1 cm) makes a proper statement above a mantelpiece or dressing table; and A0 (84.1 × 118.9 cm) is the full duchess – commanding, room-anchoring, not to be ignored. The print is also available as a 28 × 40 inch (70 × 100 cm) canvas, ready to hang with no frame needed.
