  • Printed poster (canvas material): The poster is a printed canvas with a slight structure on the surface. The printed poster is particularly suited for framing the art copy using a custom frame. Please keep in mind, that depending on the size of the canvas poster print we add a white margin 2 - 6cm round about the print motif, which facilitates the framing with a custom frame.
  • Canvas print: A canvas direct print is a printed canvas stretched on a wood stretcher. A canvas produces the particular look of three-dimensionality. A printed canvas generates a nice and comfy impression. The great advantage of canvas prints is that they are relatively low in weight, which implies that it is easy and straightforward to hang up your Canvas print without the use of additional wall-mounts. That is why, canvas prints are suitable for any type of wall.
  • The glossy acrylic glass print: An acrylic glass print, which is often described as a fine art print on plexiglass, will change your favorite original artwork into brilliant décor. Beyond that, it offers a viable alternative option to canvas or aluminium dibond art prints.

The canvas had as its pendant a painting of two children, one seated and one standing, warming themselves before a cottage fire. The latter has disappeared but its composition is known from an 1809 mezzotint engraving. The pair formed part of a group of rustic paintings of working-class children much admired in the late eighteenth and nineteenth centuries as "fancy pictures." Jack Hill, shown here, was a professional beggar whom Gainsborough took into his house as a model.
