My favorite - the "Mountain Flame" painting from the John-Richard collection.
It reminds me of an art piece I blogged about last year, featured in California Home + Design Mag, May 2010, in a home designed by Molly Luetkemeyer.
Another, more neutral piece of Horchow art...
"White Gold" by Bering & James
They also had some fabulous tips on their website about hanging art - here are some of my favorite tips:
In hallways and entries, hang wall art at average standing eye level, about 5' 6" from the floor. For a large piece, hang so the center of the piece is about 5' from the floor.
Generally, large works of art balance large pieces of furniture and vice versa, but don't be afraid to mix things up.
When grouping , wall art separate them by at least 2".
An odd-numbered grouping (3, 5, etc.) tends to be more pleasing to the eye then a symmetrical even-numbering arrangement.
Mark the wall where you want the hanger, and don't forget to account for the "drop" of the wire.
For a grouping, arrange all the pieces first on a table or floor, then sketch an outline to follow in hanging them. {I use a non-sticky tape, like drafting tape, on the wall to show where the piece will be. You could even use Post-It notes! Anything that won't peel the paint}
