Choose your desired material option

In the dropdown selection right next to the article you can choose the size and materialaccording to your individual preferences. You can choose among the following product customization options:

  • Poster print (canvas material): Our poster is a printed canvas with a nice finish on the surface. It is ideally qualified for putting the fine art print with the help of a custom frame. Please keep in mind, that depending on the absolute size of the canvas poster print we add a white margin of something between 2-6cm around the print motif, which facilitates the framing with your custom frame.
  • Aluminium dibond print (metal): These are metal prints on aluminium dibond material with a true depth effect. The non-reflective surface make a contemporary look. For the Direct Aluminium Dibond print, we print your chosen artpiece on the aluminium surface.
  • Canvas: A printed canvas material applied on a wood frame. Your canvas print of your favorite artpiece will let you turn your personal fine art print into a large artpiece. Hanging a canvas print: The advantage of canvas prints is that they are relatively low in weight. That means, it is easy and straightforward to hang up the Canvas print without the use of any wall-mounts. A canvas print is suitable for any kind of wall.
  • Acrylic glass print (with real glass coating): The print on acrylic glass, which is sometimes referred to as a UV print on plexiglass, transforms your favorite artwork into décor. Your work of art is manufactured with the help of modern UV direct printing technology. This makes rich and sharp color hues. The major upside of an acrylic glass fine art print is that contrasts as well as image details will be recognizeable due to the delicate tonal gradation.

Important note: We try all that we can in order to depict our products in as much detail as possible and to exhibit them visually. However, the colors of the printing material and the imprint might diverge somehwat from the presentation on the screen. Depending on the screen settings and the quality of the surface, color pigments can unfortunately not be printed as realistically as the digital version depicted here. Considering that the art reproductions are processed and printed manually, there might also be minor differences in the motif's size and exact position.

Hofmann spent much of his adult life in communities along Pennsylvania’s Schuylkill River, with frequent stays in public poorhouses, where he was admitted for “intemperance,” or alcoholism. He made approximately seventeen paintings of such facilities for staff members and officers of the charitable institutions. This work, painted from a high vantage point, provides a clear view of the grounds of the Schuylkill County Almshouse, near Pottsville. The bright, lively colors and clean, busy grounds depicted in the painting create a deceptively cheerful appearance. The scene is identified by the artist’s carefully lettered inscription in the foreground.

This 19th century masterpiece View of the Schuylkill County Almshouse Property was created by the male American painter Charles C. Hofmann. The original had the following size: 28 3/4 x 38 7/8 in (73 x 98,7 cm). Oil on canvas was applied by the American painter as the technique for the piece of art. This work of art is included in the digital art collection of The Metropolitan Museum of Art, which is located in New York City, New York, United States of America. This modern art public domain artpiece is being supplied with courtesy of The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, Gift of Edgar William and Bernice Chrysler Garbisch, 1966.
