Source affordable art

Our stairwell needs some big pictures to inject a bit of life but as we have just finished a major refurbishment our budget is seriously tight. Can you offer any suggestions?

Posters sold by art galleries and museums cover a wide range of imagery. They come in large sizes, typically 80x60cm or 100x70cm, and sell in the £10 to £13 price range. The Tate has a good selection, including exhibition posters from its four galleries, of 76x51cm at £7 each. There is also a collection from The British Library archive at British Library Prints, which includes Dandelion Seeds (above) by William Henry Fox Talbot, £45 for a 100x75cm print. Also look at Easy Art, which has thousands of prints at similar prices. Unless you opt for exhibition posters, be canny and choose those of less familiar works, allowing visitors to presume they are limited editions. The least expensive framing system is the clip frame. Find these in a range of sizes up to 100x70cm, £16.93,
