  • Canvas print: A canvas print, which should not be confused with a canvas painting, is a digital image printed onto cotton canvas. Additionally, a printed canvas creates a lively and comfy appearance. Canvas prints are relatively low in weight, which implies that it is quite simple to hang up the Canvas print without the support of additional wall-mounts. That is why, a canvas print is suited for any kind of wall.
  • Acrylic glass print (with real glass coating): An acrylic glass print, often named a UV print on plexiglass, will transform the original into stunning décor. In addition to that, the acrylic glass art print forms a good alternative option to canvas and dibond fine art prints. The work of art is custom-made with state-of-the-art UV print machines. The plexiglass with real glass coating protects your custom art replica against sunlight and external influences for between 40-60 years.
  • The poster print (canvas material): A poster is a printed sheet of canvas paper with a slight finish on the surface. A printed poster is designed for framing the art print with the help of a custom frame. Please bear in mind, that depending on the size of the poster we add a white margin of approximately 2 - 6cm around the print motif, which facilitates the framing with a custom frame.

Important note: We try the best we can in order to describe the products in as much detail as possible and to showcase them visually. Nonetheless, the colors of the print products, as well as the printing can diverge marginally from the representation on the monitor. Depending on your screen settings and the nature of the surface, not all color pigments are printed as exactly as the digital version. Considering that all art reproductions are printed and processed manually, there may as well be slight discrepancies in the motif's exact position and the size.

Charles Courtney Curran documented the atmosphere and activity of the Art Students’ League in New York, where he studied and later taught. Here male and female students practice rendering the idealized human form. Students worked from casts of Greek and Roman sculptures, as well as from reproductions of classically inspired Renaissance objects, such as Michelangelo’s allegorical sculpture Night from the tomb of Giuliano de’Medici, which occupies the lower left corner of this painting. In the 19th century Night would not only have served as an effective demonstration of the art of antiquity but would also have represented one of the more difficult poses to illustrate. Once students mastered drawing antique and antique-inspired sculptures, they would have advanced to a class with live models.
