Wallpaper - Harvest Still Life II

In our Harvest Still Life II wallpaper, artist Julia Purinton brings the quiet warmth of a traditional oil painting to the wall. The composition centres around an arrangement of heirloom pumpkins in muted sage, pale white, and soft terracotta tones, gathered beside a ceramic vase brimming with autumnal chrysanthemums and delicate foliage. Set against a backdrop of warm Dijon yellow and earthy beige, the painterly brushstrokes evoke the classical character of 19th-century still-life art. Printed as a custom made-to-measure mural wallpaper on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, it creates a grounded, heritage focal point in a dining space or living area.

In the room

We see this design working particularly well on an uninterrupted feature wall where the full still-life composition has space to unfold. In a dining room or country kitchen, positioning the mural along a primary wall naturally complements a dining table or sideboard, anchoring the space with seasonal richness. The warm, painterly palette also suits a cosy library, study, or guest room, where the gentle contrast between the pumpkins and the neutral background adds depth without overpowering the surroundings. In an entryway or hallway, our wallpaper offers an inviting visual anchor as soon as you step inside.

Styling it

To complement the historic, painterly nature of the mural, we suggest pairing it with furniture and architectural elements that carry a sense of heritage. Rich, dark wood pieces such as walnut or antique oak sit naturally alongside the warm Dijon tones of the background, echoing the rustic tabletop depicted in the artwork. Soft linen upholstery and unlacquered brass accents harmonize effortlessly with the muted earth tones. We would keep the surrounding décor relatively restrained, letting the detailed floral arrangement and textured pumpkins remain the clear visual centrepiece of the room.

Colour combinations

The artwork features a harmonious palette of warm Dijon yellow, earthy beige, soft terracotta, muted sage green, and creamy white. To extend this atmosphere across adjacent walls and architectural trim, we recommend pulling from the subtler tones within the painting. A warm, creamy off-white or a muted stone beige on neighbouring surfaces creates a seamless, enveloping backdrop. If you prefer a richer contrast, picking up the gentle sage or deep olive tones from the pumpkin and foliage provides a natural, grounded frame for the design.
