What does the website of the The Cleveland Museum of Art say about this work of art made by François Boucher? (© Copyright - by The Cleveland Museum of Art - www.clevelandart.org)

Along with Cupids in Conspiracy (1948.181.2), this work is surely part of a series of over-door paintings that would have been installed in a house. However, where the panels were originally installed or who commissioned them remains unknown. They exemplify the fusion of fine arts and decorative arts that was common in elite interior design in 18th-century France. Even though the paintings were part of the wall decoration of the room, the patrons chose François Boucher, a well-known painter of portraits and genre scenes, as well as mythological and religious subjects, to execute them. These two paintings reflect a style that was popular both at court and among other wealthy patrons through much of the eighteenth century: light, charming, pastoral scenes that mix classical elements with pure fantasy. Both of them feature putti, chubby baby characters that add a touch of humor to the images.

Available materials

We offer a range of various materials and sizes for every product. You can choose your your favorite size and material among the following options:

  • Canvas print: The printed canvas material applied on a wood frame. A canvas has a particular effect of three dimensionality. Hanging a canvas print: A canvas print has the advantage of being relatively low in weight, which implies that it is easy to hang up your Canvas print without any wall-mounts. That is why, canvas prints are suited for any type of wall in your house.
  • Aluminium dibond print: Aluminium Dibond prints are prints on metal with a true effect of depth. The non-reflective surface make a fashionable look. For the Print On Aluminum Dibond, we print your favorite artpiece right on the aluminium surface. Colors are luminous, the fine details are clear and crisp. The direct print on aluminium is the most popular entry-level product and is a truly sophisticated way to showcase art reproductions, because it puts all of the viewer’s focus on the replica of the artwork.
  • The glossy acrylic glass print: An acrylic glass print, which is often described as a plexiglass print, will transform your favorite original artwork into wonderful décor. The great upside of a plexiglass fine art print is that contrasts and painting details will be identifiable thanks to the delicate gradation in the print.
  • Printed poster (canvas material): Our poster is a UV printed cotton canvas with a granular finish on the surface. A poster is excellently suited for putting your art replica with a custom-made frame. Please keep in mind, that depending on the absolute size of the poster we add a white margin of something between 2-6cm around the work of art to facilitate the framing with a custom frame.
