Good news, art lovers/quirky kitchenware appreciators/tablescapers with a flair for the dramatic... The National Portrait Gallery has just dropped its latest artist collab. And we're giving you the chance to win Every. Single. Item in it.
This is the A Map of Days homeware range, featuring details from Grayson Perry's self-portrait of the same name. This incredibly intricate artwork is about as far from a traditional example of portraiture as you can get (so no lifesize eyes staring back at you from your dinner plate!)
Loosely inspired by a map depicting John Bunyan's 1678 allegory, The Pilgrim's Progress, it takes the form of a map of a walled city, the various areas of which correspond to the life events, experiences and emotions of the artist.
Each piece of the Map of Days range highlights a different area of the map, transferring Perry's beautiful monochrome etchings onto fine bone china and organic cotton kitchen/dining textiles.
In our competition, one lucky winner will take home the whole range, which retails at £507. It includes:
🍽️ Four plates (one of each design in the range), all featuring a gold gilded edge
🍽️ Four napkins
🍽️ A mug with a gold gilded rim
🍽️ A 250cm-long table runner
🍽️ A cook's apron
🍽️ A tea towel.
To be in with a chance of winning, simply fill in the short form below by 11.59pm on Monday 1 June. The winner will be chosen at random and contacted by email within five working days of the competition closing. They will have five working days to respond, after which point an alternative winner will be chosen.
Don't fancy leaving it up to fate? Pre-order the entire range online now, or discover it at the National Portrait Gallery's IRL shop from June.
And be sure to keep tabs on the shop website — the Grayson Perry range is just the latest in a series of exclusive artist collabs with the likes of Tracey Emin, Luke Edward Hall and Bella Freud. Watch this space...
