Sandro Botticelli's 'The Birth of Venus' has been one of my favorite paintings for about as long as I can remember. When I stumbled across this folding screen, I knew it was perfect for my coral-painted front room, which would be pulling triple duty as a sitting/reading room, entry space, and litter box area.
I recently posted an inspiration board for how I plan to decorate that front room:
I was a little nervous about ordering the screen online since I couldn't see it in person. And since the Mona Lisa is on the other side (a painting I'm not crazy about), I was worried it might be transparent and Mona Lisa would shine through. Well, the screen arrived and I couldn't be happier! The colors are vivid. The screen is lightweight, but sturdy. And it's a perfect solution for hiding the litter boxes and litter genie. When it's time to do litter duty, I can just move the screen out of the way.

What do you think? What painting or piece of art would you want to display on a large-scale in your space?

I am a fan of french impressionism, so I have a few replicas of Lautrec and Degas. At the moment as a headboard I have a replica of Fisherman and Siren by Lord Fredrick Leighton.
This is super lovely! You are right - the coral does match.
Most of my own artwork is either tarot cards or original pieces I did back in high school. I always liked Warhol and the Impressionists but my favorite artist, Louise Bourgeois, is most known for her sculptures - that might be tricky to do a large scale display!
LOVE it.
