Product description
This print captures the effortless genius of the French avant-garde, rendered in a single, fluid blue line against a warm cream background. The composition, created in 1958 during the artist’s stay at the Villa Santo Sospir, showcases the playful yet sophisticated profile of a mythological creature, accompanied by the artist’s iconic signature and original exhibition-style typography from Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat.

Styling this Jean Cocteau print
This Jean Cocteau print pairs an elegant atmosphere with a blue palette that is easy to build a room around. The tall format of “Faun Head” suits narrow walls, hallways and the space beside a doorway; 18×24″ is a versatile middle size. Finish “Faun Head” with a slim walnut or black frame: its blue palette pairs naturally with white walls, navy or denim textiles and pale oak. Build a gallery wall around “Faun Head”: add two or three smaller prints that echo its blue and keep the gaps to 2–3 inches.
