Sweeping through the rugged heart of the Highlands, this exquisite print encapsulates the ethereal beauty of Cairn Gorm with an Art Nouveau twist. Steeped in the enchanting aesthetic of the period, it portrays the harmonious fusion of nature's elegance with stylised, flowing lines and forms. Cast your gaze upon the graceful curve of the meandering stream, its azure waters a serene pathway leading your eye through the emerald embrace of the valley. The gentle currents play host to strategically placed stepping stones—each one a silent guide beneath rippling reflections and soft whispers of the Highlands' crisp air. Verdant greens of grasses and bushes contrast richly with the warm ochre and soft sienna tones of the distant ridges. Stately trees bow subtly to the dance of the breeze, their canopies a testament to the wild's undying resolve. Dotting the landscape, the flora welcomes bursts of colour; vibrant orange and yellow blooms crown the print with life, their petals an homage to the radiant Scottish sun. In every corner, geometric shapes and contours give rise to a striking rhythm across the terrain. Yet this careful structuring does not disrupt the natural wildness of the scene—it enhances it, offering a nuanced perspective on the timelessness of Scotland's peaks and valleys. This print, a part of the 'Scottish Mountains' collection, is more than a mere representation; it is an invitation to wonder, to journey through art and history, and to revel in the mystical marriage of natural splendour with the sophistication of Art Nouveau design.

This captivating print, inspired by the serene Isle of Iona in the Inner Hebrides, showcases a blissful summer scene rendered in the vivid and expressive style characteristic of Fauvism. Bold strokes and a rich palette of blues, greens, and vibrant oranges breathe life into the waters and skies of Scotland, encapsulating the raw beauty of this tranquil island haven. The composition leads one's gaze across a crystal clear turquoise sea, punctuated by rocks that surface like jewels amidst the gentle ripples. To the left, a pristine white sandy beach hugs the coastline, offering a sense of untouched purity and a place of peaceful solitude. Foreground rocks, draped with a tapestry of wildflowers, display an array of warm hues, from fiery orange to soft pinks, creating a striking contrast against the cool tones of the water and sky. The distant rolling hills and mountains unfold in layers of lilac and blue, adding depth and mystery to the scene, while cotton-like clouds hover over the landscape, shadowing the island with an ephemeral grace. A cluster of white-washed buildings nestles harmoniously within the rugged terrain, offering a glimpse of human presence in harmony with nature. The broad, confident brushstrokes and heightened colours evoke an emotional response, inviting one to feel the warmth of the summer sun and the gentle caress of the island breeze. This print, a part of the 'Scotland in Summer' collection, is an ideal choice for those who cherish the rugged and enchanting landscapes of Scotland, encapsulating the essence of its wild, natural beauty with a touch of artistic flair. It is a testament to the enduring allure of the Scottish Isles, a place where the land, sea, and sky meet in a dance of colour and light.
