• Poster (canvas material): The poster is a UV printed canvas with a slight surface texture. Please bear in mind, that depending on the absolute size of the canvas poster print we add a white margin of something between 2-6cm round about the painting, which facilitates the framing with your custom frame.
• Acrylic glass print (with real glass coating): A glossy print on acrylic glass, which is sometimes described as a print on plexiglass, will transform your favorite original artwork into gorgeous home décor and is a distinct alternative option to canvas and dibond fine art prints. Your own version of the work of art will be made thanks to the help of state-of-the-art UV direct printing technology. The special effect of this are vivid, sharp colors. With an acrylic glass fine art print sharp contrasts and also small painting details become more exposed due to the very fine gradation in the picture.

The advantage of canvas prints is that they are relatively low in weight, which implies that it is easy to hang the Canvas print without the use of additional wall-mounts. A canvas print is suited for any type of wall.

The first version of Cabanel's Birth of Venus (Musée d'Orsay, Paris) created a sensation at the Salon of 1863, which was dubbed the "Salon of the Venuses" owing to the number of alluring nudes on view. Embodying the ideals of academic art, the careful modeling, silky brushwork, and mythological subject of Cabanel’s canvas proved a winning combination: the Salon picture was purchased by no less than Napoleon III for his personal collection. In 1875, John Wolfe commissioned the present, slightly smaller, replica from Cabanel.
