Jean Baptiste Vanmour, 1720 - Whirling Dervishes - fine art print

Artwork specifications from Rijksmuseum (© Copyright - by Rijksmuseum - Rijksmuseum)

Dervishes occupied a special place in religiously tolerant Istanbul. Through prayer, music and ecstatic dance, they tried to enter into a trance and thus come into contact with Allah. Twice a week they performed this dance ceremony, which visitors were allowed to watch. Vanmour must have regularly sat in the gallery to study the whirling of the dervishes.

A canvas print of this masterpiece will give you the opportunity to transform your into a large work of art as you know from art galleries. The advantage of canvas prints is that they are relatively low in weight, which implies that it is easy and straightforward to hang up your Canvas print without the support of additional wall-mounts. A canvas print is suitable for all types of walls.
• Printed poster (canvas material): A poster is a UV printed sheet of flat canvas with a slightly roughened surface finish. Please note, that depending on the absolute size of the canvas poster print we add a white margin of something between 2-6cm around the painting in order to facilitate the framing with your custom frame.
• The acrylic glass print: An acrylic glass print, often referred to as a print on plexiglass, will convert the original into beautiful wall décor. Further, it is a distinct alternative option to canvas or aluminium dibond fine art replicas. Your artwork is being printed with modern UV print technology. This creates the impression of vivid, sharp colors. The real glass coating protects your selected art print against light and heat for decades.

However, the pigments of the printing material and the printing may diverge to a certain extent from the image on your screen. Depending on the screen settings and the nature of the surface, color pigments can unfortunately not be printed 100% realistically.
