Coniston Water is a long, straight lake, often viewed stretching away from a wooded eastern shore. Here, a small jetty and moored boat in the foreground lead the eye toward the great whaleback ridge rising heavily along the far side.

This design applies a strict Swiss Modernist reduction to the landscape. The view is distilled into just five sharp, geometric shapes set against flat expanses of grey and cream. Seen from across a room, the stark black silhouettes of the jetty and fell are anchored perfectly by a single, bold red rule marking the boat's mast.

Such striking geometry demands attention above a mid-century desk or in a clean hallway. The print arrives framed and ready to hang. A black wood frame is highly recommended to amplify the stark, high-contrast shapes of the design. Belonging to a wider series, it can stand alone or be collected with other modernist views to create a bold, graphic gallery wall.

Sizes

30 × 40 cm — 12 × 16 in

45 × 60 cm — 18 × 24 in

50 × 70 cm — 20 × 28 in

Each size is the printed poster itself; the 20 mm moulding sits outside it. There is no mount — the print runs to the frame, so the whole design is on show.

Paper, frame and glazing

Printed on 200 gsm enhanced matte fine-art paper, chosen for flat colour: no gloss, no reflections, and ink that sits in the sheet rather than on it.

Framed in a 20 mm wide, 24 mm deep solid wood moulding — black, white or natural wood.

Glazed with shatterproof acrylic rather than glass, so a large poster arrives intact.

MDF backing board with hanging fixtures already fitted.

The Swiss Modernist series

Mid-century Swiss reduction — a fell in five shapes and a single red rule

The severest treatment we make. A fell reduced to five flat shapes, acres of quiet ground and a single accent, in the manner of the Swiss tourism posters of the 1960s. It suits a modern room and a plain wall.
