Even One Voice - Cream-Edged Green Leaves

A close view of leafy green plants with pale cream-white edges, growing in tight clusters. Broad smooth green leaves curve in at the right and top, and the background is a soft purple-grey. Dark script text across the lower part reads 'When the whole world is silent, even one voice becomes powerful. - Malala Yousafzai'.

A calm, soft-focus wall of sage green leaves with cream-white edges, set against a muted purple-grey ground, with one line of script across the lower third: 'When the whole world is silent, even one voice becomes powerful.' The colour is restful and easy to place in a room. The words give the image a reason to hang where people will stop and read it. Plenty of botanical prints show leaves, and plenty of quote prints show type on a plain ground. This one joins a layered, painterly foliage picture to a quotation that sits in its own misty area, so the words belong to the image.
