Please keep in mind, that depending on the size of the poster we add a white margin of approximately 2-6cm round about the print in order to facilitate the framing with your custom frame.
  • Canvas: The canvas print is a printed canvas stretched on a wood stretcher. A canvas generates the extra effect of three dimensionality. Also, a printed canvas makes a cosy and comfortable effect. The great advantage of canvas prints is that they are relatively low in weight, meaning that it is quite simple to hang your Canvas print without extra wall-mounts. Canvas prints are suited for any type of wall.
  • Aluminium dibond print (metal): These are metal prints on aluminium dibond with an impressive effect of depth, which creates a modern impression thanks to a surface , which is not reflective. Colors are luminous and vivid in the highest definition, details of the print appear clear and crisp, and the print has a a matte look that you can literally feel.

This complex intersection, just minutes away from the Saint-Lazare train station, represents in microcosm the changing urban milieu of late nineteenth-century Paris. Gustave Caillebotte grew up near this district when it was a relatively unsettled hill with narrow, crooked streets. As part of a new city plan designed by Baron Georges-Eugène Haussmann, these streets were relaid and their buildings razed during the artist’s lifetime. In this monumental urban view, which measures almost seven by ten feet and is considered the artist’s masterpiece, Caillebotte strikingly captured a vast, stark modernity, complete with life-size figures strolling in the foreground and wearing the latest fashions. The painting’s highly crafted surface, rigorous perspective, and grand scale pleased Parisian audiences accustomed to the academic aesthetic of the official Salon. On the other hand, its asymmetrical composition, unusually cropped forms, rain-washed mood, and candidly contemporary subject stimulated a more radical sensibility. For these reasons, the painting dominated the celebrated Impressionist exhibition of 1877, largely organized by the artist himself. In many ways, Caillebotte’s frozen poetry of the Parisian bourgeoisie prefigures Georges Seurat’s luminous Sunday on La Grande Jatte—1884, painted less than a decade later.
