Where it works

A Maiden Blush apple painted by J. Marion Shull in 1918, pale cream-yellow and speckled with rust-brown spots, shown whole on a plain page. Its quiet, near-monochrome look suits a farmhouse hallway or study at 12×18 in natural wood, beside a greener apple.

Framing. A slim black or natural wood frame right to the plate edge; the plate's own margin frames the subject. Also available gallery-wrapped on canvas, ready to hang with no frame.
