Our plexiglass with real glass coating protects your custom art replica against light and external influences for between 40-60 years.
  • The canvas print: The printed canvas applied on a wooden frame. Canvas prints are relatively low in weight, meaning that it is easy to hang the Canvas print without additional wall-mounts. A canvas print is suitable for any kind of wall.
  • Aluminium dibond print: Aluminium Dibond prints are prints on metal with an outstanding effect of depth. The bright & white parts of the artwork shine with a silk gloss but without glare.
  • Printed poster (canvas material): A poster print is a printed cotton canvas paper with a slightly roughened surface finish, that resembles the original version of the artwork. A poster print is excellently suited for framing your art replica with a personal frame. Please bear in mind, that depending on the size of the poster print we add a white margin 2-6cm around the print motif, which facilitates the framing with your custom frame.

Supplementary description by the museum (© Copyright - by The Metropolitan Museum of Art - www.metmuseum.org)

Leighton’s nickname, Jupiter Olympus, reflected his passion for classical antiquity and his status as a titan of British art. This work, made near the end of his life, takes its title from the Latin word for "tears." Traditional emblems of mourning such as cypresses, a withered wreath, and a setting sun symbolize the woman’s grief. A review of the 1895 Royal Academy exhibition in London imagined her visiting the funerary monument of her war-hero fiancé. Leighton’s classicism is evident in the column and the statuesque, draped figure; in the ornamented vessels; and in the tabernacle frame, which evokes a temple doorway.
