Select a material option

In the dropdown selection right next to the article you can choose the material and sizeaccording to your preferences. That is why, we allow you to choose among the following options:

• Aluminium print (aluminium dibond): Aluminium Dibond prints are metal prints with an impressive depth effect. A non-reflective surface creates a fashionable impression. A direct Aluminium Dibond Print is the perfect introduction to art reproductions with aluminum. For our Aluminium Dibond print, we print the selected work of art on the aluminium composite white-primed surface. The colors are bright and luminous in the highest definition, details of the print appear very clear, and the print has a a matte look that you can literally feel.
• Print on glossy acrylic glass: An print on acrylic glass, often labelled as a UV print on plexiglass, will change the original artwork into lovely décor. What is more, the acrylic print forms a viable alternative to dibond or canvas fine art replicas. Your work of art is being custom-made thanks to state-of-the-art UV print machines. This creates vivid, sharp color shades. The acrylic glass protects your chosen fine art print against light and heat for many decades.
• The poster print (canvas material): The poster is a UV printed canvas with a slightly roughened surface texture. Please bear in mind, that depending on the absolute size of the poster we add a white margin of something between 2-6cm round about the artwork, which facilitates the framing.
• Canvas print: The canvas direct print is a printed canvas mounted on a wood frame. A canvas of your favorite artpiece will let you turn your into a large size collection piece like you know from art galleries. A canvas print has the advantage of being low in weight. That means, it is quite simple to hang the Canvas print without the use of any wall-mounts. Because of thatcanvas prints are suitable for all types of walls.

English: The signature says the scene is from Ärentuna, north of Uppsala, where Liljefors stayed in a cottage in winter 1883–84. There were many black grouse that year in the wet fields, and the goshawk – common in those days – had plenty of prey. Liljefors shot a young hawk and used it as a model, along with grouse. He mounted them in the forest and painted everything outdoors. Grey-white paint applied thinly with a half-dry brush completes the impression of cold winter and swirling snow as the hawk strikes. Av signaturen framgår att platsen där motivet tillkommit är Ärentuna, strax norr om Uppsala. Där bodde Liljefors i en stuga vintern 1883–84. Det året var det gott om orre på de sanka ängarna, och duvhöken – då vanligt förekommande – hade riklig tillgång på byte. Liljefors sköt själv den unghök som han sedan utnyttjade som modell, liksom orrarna. Han gillrade upp fåglarna i skogen och målade allt utomhus. Gråvit färg pålagd tunt med halvtorr pensel förmedlar intrycket av vinterkyla och snö som yr vid hökens plötsliga attack.
