Where it works
Two crested tits from Gould, black-and-white faced with pointed crests, on a spruce branch with two cones on a pale pink-blue ground, set wide on cream with a label. Soft and wintry, it suits a nursery, a bedroom or a hallway at 16×24 landscape in natural wood, beside his Goldcrest.

Framing. A slim black or natural wood frame right to the plate edge; the plate's own margin frames the subject.
