Three classic paintings that make good art print gifts, who each one suits, and what to check before you choose a size and a wall.

Katsushika Hokusai published Mishima Pass in Kai Province in 1830-32 as part of his Thirty-Six Views of Mount Fuji series, the project that established him as the most internationally-influential Japanese artist of the nineteenth century. The print shows a single ancient cedar tree at the centre of the composition with three travellers attempting to encircle its enormous trunk on the road to Mount Fuji.

A co-working wall has to do two jobs at once: inspire people who came in to think, and stay quiet enough not to compete with their laptop screens. Seven paintings that hold the balance, and the composition rules that keep them out of the way.

The second-most famous print in the Thirty-Six Views — Fuji at dawn in late summer, the cone of the mountain turning vermilion against an aquamarine sky. Reading Hokusai's quiet masterpiece.
