Netherlandish Painter - Portrait of a Man in a Chaperon - fine art print

What does the curator team of the The Metropolitan Museum of Art state about this work of art from the painter Netherlandish Painter? (© - The Metropolitan Museum of Art - www.metmuseum.org)

This young man wears a red turban, known as a chaperon; his attire suggests the work was painted in the 1440s. The sitter’s hands originally occupied a smaller area, but the artist adjusted their position so that they could hold a flower. The inclusion of the carnation (also known as a pink), is a sign of marital love and fidelity, suggesting that the panel originally was paired with a portrait of a woman. It is possible that it began as a standard portrait, but was changed to a betrothal portrait at the patron’s request.

• Canvas print: A UV printed canvas material mounted on a wood stretcher frame. The great advantage of canvas prints is that they are relatively low in weight, meaning that it is easy to hang up the Canvas print without extra wall-mounts. Canvas prints are suitable for all types of walls.
• Poster print (canvas material): Our poster is a UV printed flat cotton canvas with a nice texture on the surface. The poster print is best designed for putting your art copy with a custom 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 print motif in order to facilitate the framing.
• Aluminium dibond print: Aluminium Dibond prints are metal prints with a true depth effect. For our Print On Aluminum Dibond, we print the favorite artwork on the aluminium surface. The bright and white parts of the original artpiece shine with a silky gloss but without the glow. The colors of the print are luminous in the highest definition, the details appear crisp, and you can perceive a matte appearance of the art print surface.
• Printed acrylic glass (with real glass coating on top): An print on acrylic glass, which is often described as a UV print on plexiglass, will turn your favorite original work of art into beautiful décor. With a glossy acrylic glass fine art print contrasts as well as smaller details become recognizeable thanks to the subtle tonal gradation of the print.
