The material choices

The product dropdown menu ofers you the possibility to select a material and a sizeaccording to your preferences. You can choose your your favorite size and material among the following options:

  • Printed poster (canvas material): The Artprinta poster print is a printed flat canvas paper with a fine surface texture. The print poster is optimally used for putting your art print in a customized frame. Please note, that depending on the size of the poster print we add a white margin of around 2-6cm round about the print, which facilitates the framing.
  • Aluminium dibond print: Aluminium Dibond prints are prints on metal with an impressive depth. For the Direct Aluminium Dibond option, we print the work of art onto the aluminium composite white-primed surface. The bright sections of the artpiece shine with a silk gloss, however without the glow.
  • Acrylic glass print (with real glass coating): The acrylic glass print, often labelled as a print on plexiglass, will turn the artwork into brilliant décor.
  • Canvas print: A UV printed canvas material stretched on a wooden stretcher frame. A canvas print generates a nice, warm ambience. Canvas Prints have the advantage of being relatively low in weight, which implies that it is easy to hang up the Canvas print without extra wall-mounts. Canvas prints are suited for any type of wall in your home.

Important note: We try our utmost to depict the art products in as much detail as possible and to demonstrate them visually. Still, the colors of the print materials, as well as the printing may diverge slightly from the representation on your device's monitor. Depending on your screen settings and the quality of the surface, colors can unfortunately not be printed as exactly as the digital version depicted here. Bearing in mind that the art prints are processed and printed manually, there may also be slight differences in the motif's exact position and the size.

Artwork description as provided from the museum's website (© Copyright - The Metropolitan Museum of Art - The Metropolitan Museum of Art)

This etching is from a group of sixteen made by Fragonard in Paris around 1763-64, based on black chalk drawings he had made in Italy a few years earlier for his friend and patron, the abbé de Saint-Non. Of the sixteen, ten were based on Venetian models, including this print inspired by a painting by the seventeenth-century artist Pietro Liberi (Italian, 1605/14-1687). Liberi's canvas, today in the Royal Collection Trust (RCIN 405705) is more closely cropped; Fragonard added space above and below the figures to create a more airy composition.
