Select your material

The product dropdown list provides you with the chance to choose your favorite size and material. We allow you to pick your favorite size and material among the following product individualization options:

• Poster on canvas material: The poster is a printed sheet of canvas paper with a nice structure on the surface. Please bear in mind, that depending on the absolute size of the poster we add a white margin of around 2-6cm round about the print, which facilitates the framing.
• Canvas print: The canvas print is a printed cotton canvas mounted on a wood stretcher. It produces the sculptural impression of three-dimensionality. Canvas prints are relatively low in weight, which implies that it is easy to hang the Canvas print without extra wall-mounts. Canvas prints are suited for any type of wall.
• Aluminium dibond: These are metal prints on aluminium dibond with an impressive depth. A direct Direct Print on Aluminum Dibond is the excellent introduction to art prints on alu. The colors are luminous in the highest definition, fine details appear crisp, and the print has a a matte look that you can literally feel.
• Acrylic glass print: An acrylic glass print, which is sometimes denoted as a UV print on plexiglass, makes the original artwork into home décor and offers a distinct alternative option to dibond and canvas fine art replicas. Our acrylic glass protects your selected art replica against light and heat for decades.

George Cope spent most of his life in West Chester, Pennsylvania where he specialized in local landscapes and still-life paintings. This large work, known in the 19th century as an “exhibition hanging picture,” was Cope’s first documented canvas in the trompe l’oeil style. Commissioned in 1887 by the artist’s friend Levi McCauley, a leading citizen of West Chester, this carefully organized and balanced composition depicts precisely rendered swords, military medals, a leather belt and buckle, a Major’s kepi (hat), and a holster, all of which belonged to the patron. The ensemble of military artifacts commemorates Major McCauley’s participation in the Civil War.
