Beginning in 1885, John Singer Sargent spent more and more time painting out of doors, exploring the techniques and subjects of Impressionism, inspired by a growing friendship with Claude Monet. Working alongside fellow American artists in the rural English environs of Worcestershire, Sargent experimented with distinctly broken brushwork and a high-keyed palette. Thistles captures the tangled movement of the windblown plants in light and shadow. The landscape composition is remarkably abstract, the dynamic patterning of the thistles asserting the flatness of the picture plane more so than any sense of depth. Sargent continued painting en plein air throughout his life, a practice that provided needed respite from his busy schedule as an acclaimed portraitist.

A canvas print has the advantage of being low in weight. This means, it is easy to hang up your Canvas print without any wall-mounts. Hence, a canvas print is suitable for all types of walls.
- The poster print (canvas material): Our poster is a printed canvas with a slightly rough texture on the surface. It is optimally suited for putting your art replica in a personal frame. Please note, that depending on the size of the canvas poster print we add a white margin of approximately 2-6cm round about the work of art in order to facilitate the framing with your custom frame.
