We offer a range of various materials and sizes for every product. We allow you to pick your favorite size and material among the following product individualization options:

• Printed acrylic glass (with real glass coating on top): The print on acrylic glass, often referred to as a print on plexiglass, will change the artwork into lovely home décor and forms a great alternative option to canvas or dibond prints. Your own replica of the artwork is being manufactured with state-of-the-art UV printing machines. This creates the effect of vivid and impressive colors. The great upside of a plexiglass fine art print is that contrasts plus color details will be exposed with the help of the granular tonal gradation of the print.
• Aluminium dibond print (metal): Aluminium Dibond prints are metal prints with a true effect of depth. For the Direct Print On Aluminum Dibond, we print the favorite work of art on the aluminium white-primed surface.
• The poster print on canvas material: The poster print is a UV printed flat canvas paper with a nice surface structure. The poster print is suited for framing the art copy in a personal frame. Please note, that depending on the size of the poster print we add a white margin of approximately 2-6cm around the work of art to facilitate the framing with your custom frame.
• The canvas print: The printed canvas material mounted on a wooden stretcher frame. Canvas prints are relatively low in weight, which implies that it is quite simple to hang the Canvas print without extra wall-mounts. Because of thatcanvas prints are suitable for all types of walls.

In the 1860’s, Sisley met Pissarro, Monet, Bazille, and Renoir, with whom he brought forth the practice of painting directly from nature. Exhibiting with the Impressionists, as they were formally named at the time of their independent exhibition in Paris in 1874, Sisley enjoyed short-lived but considerable success during the 1870’s. While residing in Sèvres with his wife and children, Sisley painted this view of a curved pathway lined with chestnut trees in full bloom. The pathway follows a bend in the Seine, lending the viewer access across the pictorial space. The weather is pleasant, the sky a crisp pale blue, and the grass bending softly in the wind. Unlike other Impressionists who returned to their studios in their later careers, Sisley remained outdoors, painting from his sketches rendered in the countryside.
