Which size is right for your space?
When in doubt, go bigger than you think. The art, including any frame, should fill about ⅔ the width of the furniture beneath it. Sizes listed are the photograph itself; framed paper prints, with a 2" mat and frame, are about 3–5" larger in each direction.

Framed prints arrive ready to hang
Framed paper prints are matted with a 2" white mat and protected by non-glare acrylic, so the image stays clear without reflections from windows or lights. Acrylic is lighter and safer to ship than glass, and every framed print arrives with hanging hardware already attached.
MetalPrints with a float mount or frame also arrive ready to hang.

About this photograph
São Jorge Castle sits on Lisbon's highest hill, and it's been a fortification since at least the 2nd century BC—Phoenicians, Romans, Visigoths, Moors, and, finally, Portuguese Christians have all built on this strategic position. What you see now is mostly the result of multiple reconstructions, with the most recent restoration in the 1930s being somewhat controversial for the extent to which it "improved" the ruins.
I was drawn to this courtyard doorway because it captures that layered history—medieval stonework, the Moorish-influenced archways, the red door. The vegetation growing from the walls isn't decorative; it's what happens when stone structures sit exposed to Lisbon's Atlantic weather for centuries.
The lighting was ideal that day—strong enough to bring out the texture of the weathered stone but not so harsh as to kill the detail in the shadows. I composed it to show the contrast between the rough fortress walls and the domestic touches of the doorway, which transition from military architecture to a more human-scaled scale.
The warm stone tones and architectural details work well in spaces that call for a sense of Mediterranean character and historical depth.

About Dave
I create landscape photography for contemporary interiors where visual quality matters. My focus is dramatic environments—deserts, coastlines, forests, ancient architecture, night skies—photographed with deliberate composition and attention to craft. I'm selective about what I show. This collection represents a small percentage of what I shoot—work chosen for compositional strength and the ability to reward sustained viewing. These are images designed to live on your walls for years, not months.
