Frequently Asked Questions
Who makes this highland cow art?

Designed by our talented team in Melbourne using digital tools.

Each design sells under Mane & Moor, our own house brand, which covers highland cattle and horses. Every piece is printed in Australia.

Is a highland cow canvas available?

Yes. Most designs come as a canvas as well as an art print and a framed print. The canvas is 400gsm on a 38 mm frame with mirrored edges, and it arrives without hanging hardware.

Not every size exists for every design: a size appears only when the picture carries that shape with a slight trim and enough detail for print, and the preview shows exactly what will print.

Do you have black and white highland cow prints?

Yes, about a third of the range is black and white. The colour pieces run from red and russet through to blonde, cream, brown and black. Black and white holds a hallway, a study or a room with a narrow palette together, and each design comes as an art print, a framed print or a canvas.

Why do highland cows have such long hair?

The breed carries two layers of coat: a long outer coat that sheds the weather, sitting over a soft, downy undercoat. That outer hair grows longer than on any other cattle breed, which is where the brow fringe and the shaggy outline come from. It is a large part of why the breed is so hardy.

Which highland cow print suits a nursery?

Pieces showing calves, and the paler designs that sit on white, work most comfortably in a nursery. Hang the art above the drawers or the change table so it stays in view while you dress a baby, and keep the wall over the cot clear.

What does delivery cost?

Delivery is $10 standard or $15 express per order, Australia wide. You choose the option at checkout, and the rate covers the whole order rather than each piece.

Why the breed draws people in


Their home is the Highlands and the Western Islands of Scotland, and the look follows from there. Every animal in the breed grows horns, females included, and the coat comes in two layers: a long, weather-shedding outer coat sitting over a soft, downy undercoat. Nothing else in the cattle world grows outer hair that long.


On a wall that gives you a fringe falling across the eyes, horns swinging out past the shoulders and a calm face beneath. Highland cattle are exceptionally hardy, so an animal standing in fog or snow looks like an ordinary working morning. Red is the classic colour, and yellow, brindle, dun, white and black turn up as well.


Two looks run through the range


Most designs in the highland cow wall art range carry a realistic look: an animal shown from the chest up against plain white, a tight view of the eyes and the shaggy brow, or cattle standing in frost, fog, snow or open moor. The rest take a painted style, from soft blended washes on white to a tonal bust set against a warm stone colour.


Roughly a third of the range is black and white, which holds a hallway or study to a narrow palette. Colour pieces run through red, russet, copper, blonde, cream, brown and black. If your search began with highland cow painting, start with the painted pieces. A highland cow picture can be either look.


The Mane & Moor house brand also carries horse wall art in both styles, and the wider animal wall art suits a room that mixes subjects.


Calves for a nursery and pairs on one wall


Within this highland cow wall art range, calves are the obvious choice for a nursery, and the pale designs on plain white settle in just as well. Hang them above the drawers or the change table, where they stay in view while you dress a baby, and leave the wall over the cot clear.


A pair or a small group can be planned as one arrangement: two frames level with a third centred beneath, or three in a row down a hallway. A tight study of the brow and eyes carries a large size above a sofa or a bed, while an animal standing in snow suits something smaller.


Choosing a format and size


Every design in the range comes as an art print, a framed print or a canvas. Art prints arrive unframed, giclee on 200gsm archival matte paper. A framed print sits behind perspex in a thin 20 mm frame, and you choose oak look, black or white. It has no mount as standard and arrives ready to hang. Canvas runs at 400gsm on a 38 mm frame with mirrored edges, and no hanging hardware comes with it.


Sizes vary between designs. A size is offered only where the picture suits that shape after a slight trim and there is detail enough to print, and the preview on each piece shows the crop that prints. Go larger for a tight view of the head and smaller for a full animal. The wider wall art collection uses the same three formats when you have more than one wall to fill.
