Hanging bold and bright artwork

Hi, I am moving into a newly build town home with only 2800 square feet.

I have inherited a Leroy Niemann print, Regents Park. It is a large, bold and bright. I love this piece. My new home has high ceilings, light gray walls, a white kitchen with white granite with threads of gray in it. My floor is dark wide wooden planks. The kitchen, living room and dining room are in the shape of an L. Am I pushing a loud print on a really serene space?

My style is clean and minimal.

Thank you!

From your description the Leroy Neimann piece should work however with some restraints: there should be at least two other equally audacious pieces in the space - preferably other works of Leroy Niemann.

If your musical sensibilities lean towards Emerson Lake and Palmer's interpretation of Mussorgsky's 'Pictures at an Exhibition' or Aaron Copland's 'Fanfare for the Common Man' played at a medium volume the artwork should feel right at home.

Also important to consider the interplay between sun angles, sky, interior lighting and outside views.
