This is quite an eye-catching print. The original image was designed by iconic pop artist Andy Warhol. The quite serious subject matter is almost offset by the ludicrous shade of pink. This poster is digitally printed on archival photographic paper. If your home décor is quite bold, this print would fit right in.

Add a touch of New York to your home with this set of four printed posters. I can easily imagine these posters in a loft setting. That said, I think they’d suit a range of different décors. Try mounting them in a kitchen or dining setting.

Starry Night over the Rhone Stretched Canvas Print by Van Gogh
/filters:quality(70)/content/www/2011/03/7-arty-prints-for-your-home/7_starry-night-over-the-rhone-stretched-canvas-print-by-van-gogh_7-arty-prints-for-your-home_400x266.jpg)
Price: $29.99 at amazon.com
While Van Gogh’s ‘Starry Night’ may be more popular, this image is still iconic in its own right. It features all of Van Gogh’s trademark swirls and brush strokes. This canvas print is finished with a protective varnish coating and comes ready to mount. It would look great as is, or mounted in an elegant frame.
Of course, these choices are all inspired by my own personal preferences. There are prints to suit every style and taste – it’s just a matter of finding the right one for you. Would you consider any of these arty prints for your home?
