The sitter in this portrait wears a pendant with a symbol of a military order. In the nineteenth century the sitter was identified as Don Pedro Núñez de Villavicencio (1640–ca. 1695), whose passion for painting led him to study with both Murillo and Mattia Preti. Unfortunately, this identification is incorrect, though the portrait may show another member of the Villavicencio family.

  • The canvas print: The canvas print is a printed canvas mounted on a wood frame. Furthermore, a canvas produces a homelike and pleasant appearance. Canvas prints are relatively low in weight, which means that it is easy to hang up your Canvas print without the help of additional wall-mounts. A canvas print is suited for all kinds of walls.
  • The poster print (canvas material): Our poster is a printed sheet of flat cotton canvas paper with a slight structure on the surface. The poster is qualified for framing the art replica using a custom frame. Please bear in mind, that depending on the size of the poster print we add a white margin between 2 - 6cm round about the print to facilitate the framing with your custom frame.
  • Metal print (aluminium dibond): Aluminium Dibond prints are prints on metal with an outstanding effect of depth. The Aluminium Dibond Print is the perfect start to art prints with aluminum. For your Print On Aluminum Dibond, we print the selected work of art right on the surface of the white-primed aluminum composite. The bright & white parts of the artwork shine with a silk gloss but without the glow. The UV print on aluminium is the most popular entry-level product and is a modern way to display fine art prints, since it draws focus on the replica of the artwork.
  • Printed acrylic glass (with real glass coating): A glossy print on acrylic glass, often denoted as a print on plexiglass, will convert your favorite artwork into brilliant home decoration and is a viable alternative to canvas or dibond fine art prints. The artwork will be made with the help of state-of-the-art UV print machines. It makes sharp and rich colors. With a glossy acrylic glass fine art print contrasts plus image details will be exposed thanks to the granular gradation.
