The Mythical Mediterranean. Where to get lost, in style and comfort.
The Mediterranean is surrounded by three continents – Europe, Africa and Asia – and even though the cultures around this sea are highly diverse, they harmoniously share a pleasant climate, distinctive flora and fauna, and not least the intense blue of the water.
Angelika Taschen set out in search of the most beautiful hotels on a great variety of coasts, islands and beaches, taking you on a journey to the luxurious Hotel du Cap-Eden-Roc and the ultra-chic Les Roches Rouges on the Côte d’Azur, to the little-known Pardini’s Hermitage on the Italian island of Giglio, which is only accessible by boat or on foot, and to Bodrum in Turkey, where the elegant Amanruya resort lies hidden in one of the most stunning bays in the Mediterranean. She also presents new hotel concepts, great architecture and creative design – for example the finca Menorca Experimental on the Balearic Islands, the modernist Villa Dubrovnik in Croatia and Dexamenes on the Peloponnese, where new life was breathed into decommissioned wine tanks.
Silk Scarf moorland
£125.00
Silk Scarf moorland
The golds, greys, duns and muddy umbers. The creams and glimpses of blue and turquoise that are no more than a promise. These colours are so redolent of our uplands and moorlands that you can almost hear the loud hush of wind as it blows through reeds and shakes the tufts and tussocks. This whole landscape is summed up simply and elegantly in a square of exquisite and gorgeous silk. It’s our moorland scarf.
Silk Scarf moorland
Pure silk oversized square design edged with lime silk chiffon

Silk Scarf moorland Story
Our studio near the upper reaches of the River Thames is surrounded by beautiful moorland that changes mood with the season and the climate and even the half hour, glowering one moment, gentle and benign the next. But never ever dull. The colours are inspirational in so many ways. The mixed media piece used on our new “moorland” collection was painted on gypsum to create a chalky palette of autumnal hues. The textures from the original piece which include fine carved lines, are greatly magnified and create wonderfully abstract detail on a large scale. Can prints be poetic? We think so.
Both packing and postage is included in the price shown. Always original, these limited editions are feather light wearable art. READ MORE→

Jane Bristowe Green Toad Limited Edition Linocut
£195.00
Know anyone totally in love with Green Toads? Well, this Green Toad Limited Edition Print makes an ideal gift for someone who loves characterful and quirky animals. Think birthday or even birth day because it looks wonderful smiling down from a nursery wall. Think Christmas, anniversaries, and gifts for no reason at all too. The linocuts are limited so hurry, before they hop off.
Can you sum up an elephant in a line? Or capture the character of a frog right down to the ‘ribbit’? Jane Bristowe appears to be able to do it with consummate ease. Her lines are sure and her colours bold and beautiful, all hesitation left behind the moment before she applies her carving tools. What also adds character is the way Jane has positioned her beloved animals in the frame. The blue whale has to arch its back to fit while the chubby little wren occupies just one corner. So as well as having character, the animals also have scale. It would take ages to describe in words what Jane Bristowe has achieved with these wonderful Limited Edition Linocuts. And even then the writing might not be enough.
Limited Edition Linocuts are all artist signed original prints.
The Paper is: 300 gsm cotton woven Somerset Satin.
Printed with lithographic relief inks.
