“I had the idea to make this painting on December 21st, the shortest day. I set out to paint a quiet, gentle, hazy light - a low sun in a cold open field. Winter can feel so dark and long but I do think sunlight is at its most beautiful in the middle of winter on a really cold day.”

The Shortest Day, painted directly onto the Farrow and Ball paint chip for Calluna, is an original miniature painting by Rachel Spelling. The painting is 2cm x 3cm and it’s served on a strip of twelve beautiful colours from the iconic Farrow & Ball colour card, which measures 7.4cm x 21cm. It is sold unframed.

This painting is signed and dated on the back and it will be accompanied by a signed and embossed certificate of authenticity.

UK delivery is £5.50 (Royal Mail Signed For) and delivery for the rest of the world is £15 (Royal Mail International Tracked).
