The colors are bright and luminous, details of the print appear clear and crisp, and there’s a matte look you can literally feel. This UV print on Aluminum Dibond is one of the most demanded entry-level products and is a truly sophisticated way to showcase art reproductions, since it draws attention on the image.
• Print on glossy acrylic glass (with real glass coating): The acrylic glass print, which is sometimes described as a UV print on plexiglass, changes your favorite artwork into gorgeous décor. In addition to that, it makes a good alternative option to canvas and dibond fine art replicas. The artwork will be made with modern UV printing machines. The acrylic glass protects your custom art replica against sunlight and external influences for several decades.
• The canvas print: The UV printed canvas applied on a wooden stretcher frame. A canvas produces a sculptural impression of three dimensionality. The great advantage of canvas prints is that they are relatively low in weight, meaning that it is quite simple to hang your Canvas print without the help of any wall-mounts. Canvas prints are suitable for any kind of wall.

Because all the fine art prints are processed and printed manually, there may also be minor differences in the exact position and the size of the motif.

What does the The Metropolitan Museum of Art write about this work of art painted by Hans Memling? (© - The Metropolitan Museum of Art - www.metmuseum.org)

This sympathetic portrayal of an elderly man once formed a diptych with a portrait of an old woman (Museum of Fine Arts, Houston). Unlike the portraits of Tommaso and Maria Portinari displayed nearby, the two pictures were not parts of a devotional painting but were created with the idea of preserving the appearances of the sitters as they neared the end of their lives, a function of portraiture that became increasingly popular in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries.

The piece of art was painted by the Dutch painter Hans Memling. The original measures the size Overall 10 3/8 x 7 5/8 in (26,4 x 19,4 cm); painted surface 10 x 7 1/4 in (25,4 x 18,4 cm). Oil on wood was used by the painter as the medium of the work of art.
