Which kind of fine art print material do you like most?

In the product dropdown menu you can pick your favorite material and size. The following sizes and materials are the options we offer you for individualization:

  • The poster print (canvas material): The poster is a UV printed canvas paper with a granular structure on the surface, which resembles the actual work of art. The printed poster is ideally appropriate for placing your art print using a special frame. Please keep in mind, that depending on the size of the poster print we add a white margin 2-6 cm around the work of art to facilitate the framing.
  • Glossy acrylic glass print (with real glass coating): A glossy acrylic glass print, which is often described as a plexiglass print, changes your original into gorgeous décor. Beyond that, it offers a good alternative to dibond or canvas fine art replicas. Your own version of the work of art is made with the help of modern UV print technology. The effect of this are deep, vibrant color tones.
  • Aluminium dibond print: An Aluminium Dibond print is a print material with an outstanding effect of depth. A direct Direct Print on Aluminum Dibond is your ideal introduction to fine art prints with alu. The white and bright parts of the work of art shimmer with a silk gloss but without glow.
  • Canvas print: The canvas print, which shall not be mistaken with a real canvas painting, is a digital image printed from an industrial printer. Canvas Prints have the advantage of being low in weight, which implies that it is easy to hang your Canvas print without the support of extra wall-mounts. Canvas prints are suitable for any kind of wall.

Original artwork information by the museum (© - by The Metropolitan Museum of Art - The Metropolitan Museum of Art)

America’s most successful painter of narrative scenes, Mount chose as his subjects various aspects of rural life in the flat Long Island landscape around Stony Brook, New York, where he lived. He managed to transcend the manifest content of his pictures to address the social and political realities of the time. "The Raffle (Raffling for the Goose)," showing an impromptu lottery, was Mount’s good-humored allusion to the food shortages brought on by the financial panic of 1837.
