Bring the wistful magic of Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tales into your home with this trio of prints, each drawn from a story that finds beauty and sorrow in the smallest of lives.
Why these three belong together
Andersen had a gift for finding profound emotion in humble characters, a lonely girl, a broken toy, a discarded tree, and these three tales are among his most tender. Each one follows a small, overlooked figure through longing, love and loss, and each ends with a quiet ache that has moved readers for generations. Hung together, they capture the heart of Andersen's storytelling in one thoughtful set.
The Little Match Girl (1845)
On a freezing New Year's Eve, a poor girl strikes her last matches for warmth. Each flame conjures a fleeting vision of comfort and love, leading her towards one final, luminous journey.
The Steadfast Tin Soldier (1838)
A one-legged tin soldier falls for a paper ballerina and faces perilous drains and the belly of a fish to stay true to her. His devotion never wavers, even as their story moves towards a bittersweet, fiery end.
The Fir Tree (1844)
A young fir tree longs to grow tall and leave the forest behind, missing the beauty of its present life. It enjoys one dazzling moment of glory as a Christmas tree before being cast aside, left to reflect with regret.
Styling your Andersen wall
This gentle, storybook trio suits a reading nook, a child's bedroom or a cosy hallway where the tales can be discovered slowly. For a soft, timeless feel, try the Edge style with light oak frames, or choose the Square format for a neat, symmetrical gallery run. If your home leans towards clean, contemporary lines, the Modern or Modern Minimalist styles work beautifully in black or white frames, letting the stories speak with quiet elegance. Whichever style you choose, remember that any three prints qualify for our offer, buy 3, save 20%, making this the perfect moment to complete your set.
What size poster should I buy?
Paper sizes are hard to picture. Below, every size we print is hung on the same living room wall, to scale above a 2.2 m sofa, so you can see the real difference between an A4 and an A2 before you order.
Every size, on a real wall
Shown to scale above a 2.2 m sofa, each frame hung 20 cm above the sofa back.

Sizes are the printed paper. A frame adds a border around the print, so a framed piece covers a little more wall than the figures above. Prices for each size are shown on the product page.
Where to hang it
On its own
Hang so the middle of the print sits about 145 cm from the floor. That is eye level for most people and the height galleries use.
Above a sofa or bed
Leave 15 to 25 cm between the top of the furniture and the bottom of the frame, and pick a print roughly two thirds the width of the sofa.
A set of three
Keep 5 to 8 cm between frames and line up their middles. Three A4s or three A3s side by side read as one piece.
A gallery wall
Mix A5 and A4 around one larger A3 or A2. Lay it out on the floor first, then hang from the middle outwards.
