A blue open book with cream pages sits centered against a soft beige background, rendered in a clean, geometric illustration style. Navy text below reads "the book was better," capturing the universal sentiment of book lovers in a witty, understated composition. For the bookshelf, the reading nook, or any literary lover's space. Printed to order directly onto lightweight aluminum with a high-gloss finish that makes color and detail pop and resists fading over time. A wood backing floats it about three-quarters of an inch off the wall and holds the wire or sawtooth hanger. Available from mini to large, it is original art with a modern, durable edge, not a quick print off a shelf.
