Every artwork here is AI-made and printed to order.
Christmas picks
Made to order. Allow the usual 4 to 9 working days for production and UK delivery, with extra time around Christmas. This is an allowance, not a guaranteed arrival date; check delivery and returns before ordering for a deadline. The moon phases print comes first, then Watercolour Moon and Visit the Moon.
Three kinds of moon art
Three lunar plates, each doing a different job. The Lunar Phases plate charts all eight phases in fine gold line on deep ink, a full lunar month in one row. The Watercolour Moon pools grey and silver into the maria for something softer. And Visit the Moon packs the whole thing into a 1930s-style travel poster for the Sea of Tranquility.
Which of the three
They are not three versions of one picture, so the choice is about the room rather than taste. Lunar Phases is a row: eight phases in fine gold line on deep ink, and it wants width — above a bed, a sofa or a long shelf, where the sequence has room to read left to right. Watercolour Moon is a single full disc in grey and silver wash, so it works where the row would not: a chimney breast, an alcove, a square of wall between two doors. Visit the Moon is the odd one out and knows it — a 1930s travel poster for the Sea of Tranquility, colour and wit rather than quiet, and the one to pick for a child’s room or a study that already has enough calm in it.
Moon phase prints have to run in the right order
A moon phase print is one of the few decorative objects that can be wrong. Check the order and viewing convention, then the illuminated shape: crescent and gibbous phases have a curved projected boundary, while first and last quarter appear approximately straight. A straight quarter-phase edge is not an error. Ours runs new moon, waxing crescent, first quarter, waxing gibbous, full, waning gibbous, last quarter, waning crescent, in that order. The checklist for spotting that applies wherever you buy, including here.
Behind these plates sits the free half of the site: every full moon in 2026 and 2027 with the exact London time of each, and the eight phases explained, including why some sources count four. Every date on those pages is sourced on the page itself, so you can check it.
Moon art printed for the wall, not the screen
Each lunar print is run with pigment inks on 250 gsm uncoated off-white archival paper - the same stock at every size - and produced only when you order it. The picker on the product page names the stock. Got your own shot of a full moon? We'll print your photograph after checking it against every size, or restyle it with Cosmic Canvas.
The lunar plates are one subject in The collection. If you are buying for someone, what to give a moon-lover sorts the three kinds of gift, and every astronomy print is the full catalogue.
For a date worth keeping, choose a calculated Moon phase rather than a decorative lunar scene. Make a personalised Moon-phase print. Every date uses 12:00 UTC; the north-up surface and lighting are schematic.
