A flowing multi-color stacked area chart on black shows curated art collections returning up to 24% annually, beating the S&P 500.
Summary
The returns slide: a five-line white headline on the left and, on the right, a flowing stacked area chart in the deck's neon palette showing curated collections (Houston MFA 24%, MoMA 16.2%, Contemporary Art 13.8%) outpacing the S&P 500 (10.2%).
Visual description
Black background. Left column: a five-line white headline "We're opening access to the most exclusive asset class ever created: museums." Below it, three tick-marked white bullets (well-performing in inflation, collectors hedge with art, 73% of wealth managers confirm client demand). Right two-thirds: a chart titled in muted gray "Curated collections outpace the overall art market, which outpaces the S&P 500" with a "YoY, 2000 to 2020" sub-label. The chart is a set of stacked, smoothly curved area bands sweeping upward to the right in cyan, green, yellow-green, and red gradients. Each band is tagged at the left with a colored label and an oversized colored percentage: Houston MFA 24% (cyan), MoMA 16.2% (green), Contemporary Art 13.8% (yellow), S&P 500 10.2% (red), with dotted leader lines extending right. A small sources line sits at the bottom; the "arkive" wordmark runs up the left edge.
Key takeaway
Turning a returns comparison into a single flowing, color-coded area chart where the oversized percentage labels (not the axis) carry the message, so the takeaway is readable in a second. Matching each series color to the deck's neon system keeps the data slide on-brand.
Reuse notes
A reusable data slide for any "our asset class outperforms the benchmark" argument. Lead with the big percentage labels and a plain comparison title; keep the axis quiet. The gradient area bands look premium on black but can muddy if overlapped too far; separate the series clearly and always cite sources.
