  • The poster print (canvas material): Our poster is a printed sheet of canvas with a nice structure on the surface, which resembles the actual artwork. It is particularly qualified for putting your fine art print with the help of a customized frame. Please note, that depending on the absolute size of the poster we add a white margin 2-6 cm round about the print to facilitate the framing with your custom frame.
  • Aluminium dibond print (metal): Aluminium Dibond prints are prints on metal with an impressive effect of depth. For your Direct Aluminium Dibond option, we print the artpiece right on the aluminium composite surface. This UV print on Aluminum Dibond is the most popular entry-level product and is a truly contemporary way to display art reproductions, because it draws focus on the replica of the artwork.
  • Acrylic glass print: The acrylic glass print, which is often denoted as a print on plexiglass, will turn the artwork into wonderful wall decoration. With an acrylic glass art print sharp contrasts and also smaller color details will be identifiable due to the precise gradation of the picture.
  • The canvas print: A canvas print is a printed cotton canvas mounted on a wooden stretcher. How do I hang a canvas print on my wall? Canvas Prints have the advantage of being relatively low in weight, meaning that it is easy to hang your Canvas print without the use of any wall-mounts. Therefore, canvas prints are suitable for any kind of wall.

Depending on the screen settings and the nature of the surface, not all colors will be printed as exactly as the digital version depicted here.

During his second sojourn in England (1532–43) Holbein made portraits for a new clientele, the German merchants of the Hanseatic League, whose guildhall was located in the London Steelyard. The sitter, whose ring displays the arms of the Wedighs of Cologne, is probably Hermann von Wedigh III, portrayed at age twenty-nine. The Latin quotation on the sheet of paper in the foreground, reading "Truth breeds hatred," comes from the Roman comedy Andria by Terence, popular among Humanists. The inserted slip of paper could thus refer to the book’s content and perhaps have served as the sitter’s personal motto.
