The material choices

We offer a range of different sizes and materials for every product. Pick your favorite size and material among the following options:

  • Poster (canvas material): The Artprinta poster is a UV printed sheet of canvas with a granular structure on the surface, which reminds the original masterpiece. Please keep in mind, that depending on the absolute size of the canvas poster print we add a white margin 2-6cm around the artwork in order to facilitate the framing with your custom frame.
  • Metal print (aluminium dibond): This is a metal print manufactured on aluminium dibond with a true depth. For our Print On Aluminum Dibond, we print your work of art right onto the surface of the white-primed aluminum. The bright and white parts of the original work of art shimmer with a silk gloss but without any glow. The print on Aluminum Dibond is one of the most popular entry-level products and is a truly modern way to display fine art prints, as it draws attention on the artwork.
  • Canvas print: A UV printed canvas material mounted on a wood frame. Also, a canvas makes a soft and comfy appearance. Your canvas print of your favorite artwork will allow you to transform your fine art print into a large size artwork like you would see in a gallery. The great advantage of canvas prints is that they are relatively low in weight, which means that it is easy to hang up the Canvas print without the support of any wall-mounts. Canvas prints are suitable for all types of walls.
  • Print on acrylic glass: A glossy acrylic glass print, often named a print on plexiglass, will turn the original into stunning home decoration. Your favorite artwork is being printed with modern UV print technology. The great upside of an acrylic glass art print is that contrasts as well as minor image details will be exposed with the help of the precise tonal gradation. The real glass coating protects your chosen art print against sunlight and external influences for many years to come.

Legal note: We try our utmost to describe the products as accurately as possible and to illustrate them visually on the different product detail pages. However, some tone of the printing material, as well as the print result can differ somehwat from the representation on the monitor. Depending on your screen settings and the quality of the surface, colors may not be printed 100% realistically. Since all our art prints are processed and printed manually, there might as well be minor variations in the motif's size and exact position.

Wilkie, a genre painter, served as a court artist under George IV and his successors. This painting, commissioned by the Earl of Essex in 1824, was exhibited by Wilkie at the Royal Academy in 1825. The scene’s rustic detail, as in the vignette of collie dogs lolling next to the open hearth, and its patriotic sentiment, which stems from the novels of Sir Walter Scott, explain the contemporary opinion that this work was not a costume piece but a "portrait painted from life."
