A poster is best qualified for framing your fine art print in a custom-made frame.

  • Aluminium dibond print: Aluminium Dibond prints are metal prints with an outstanding depth. A non-reflective surface creates a fashionable look. The white and bright parts of the artwork shine with a silky gloss but without glare.
  • Acrylic glass print (with real glass coating): An print on acrylic glass, often referred to as a print on plexiglass, changes the original work of art into amazing décor. In addition to that, the acrylic glass art print makes a distinct alternative to aluminium or canvas fine art prints.

Original artwork description as provided from the museum (© - The Metropolitan Museum of Art - The Metropolitan Museum of Art)

Born in England, Chambers worked in the United States as a prolific marine, landscape, and “fancy” painter between 1832 and about 1866. In the 1930s and 1940s, with the discovery of the Museum’s signed painting, Chambers emerged as a folk original, embraced posthumously by modern art enthusiasts as the “American Rousseau.” Here, Chambers focused his attention on a well-known marine battle in the War of 1812 featuring the U.S.S. Constitution, also known as Old Ironsides. Basing his composition on an engraving by Cornelius Tiebout after a painting by Thomas Birch, he took certain liberties with his source, advancing the action and showing the British ship, H.M.S. Guerrière, with all its masts broken.
