Horizontal wall art
Wide, landscape-format original paintings — made for the space above a sofa, bed or sideboard.
Some walls are simply wider than they are tall — above a sofa, a bed or a long sideboard. A horizontal painting fills that space the way no square or portrait piece can, drawing the eye along the wall. At L'Original, every horizontal canvas is an original, hand-painted by a professional artist.
