Where it works
Gould's common redstarts, two grey-backed males with orange breasts and a brown female on a bare branch with hanging catkins, a wide plate set on cream with a label. Warm and spare, it suits a kitchen, a bedroom or a hallway at 16×24 landscape in natural wood, with his Goldcrest.

Framing. A slim black or natural wood frame right to the plate edge; the plate's own margin frames the subject.
Pairing. Pairs as a set of three with other bird prints (10% off three or more).
