The pictures hotels choose to hang on their walls are usually awful and generally mass-produced. Those who select them probably sit in committee with a bullet list of requirements - not too striking or offensive, soothing, ideally, (or, as some might call it, bland).
Clearly, having nothing on the walls might be a bit bleak in box-like rooms filled with mass-produced furniture but would good pictures really upset guests? Or is there a fear that they'd pinch them if they were actually nice?
Anyway, here are some pictures hanging in a place we are staying overnight which happens to be in a wine growing area. A decision seems to have been made that really bad paintings that have corks glued onto them is a perfect decorative solution. I am fighting the temptation to pull a few corks off.
