Choose your product material

For every art print we offer a range of different sizes & materials. Choose among the following product options now to match your preferences in size and material:

• Canvas: A canvas print is a printed canvas stretched on a wooden frame. A printed canvas of this masterpiece will give you the unique chance to transform your into a large work of art. The great advantage of canvas prints is that they are relatively low in weight, meaning that it is easy to hang up the Canvas print without any wall-mounts. That is why, canvas prints are suitable for any type of wall.
• Metal (aluminium dibond print): This is a metal print made on aluminium dibond material with a true effect of depth - for a modern impression and non-reflective surface. For your Aluminium Dibond option, we print your artpiece right on the aluminium composite white-primed surface. The white and bright parts of the work of art shine with a silk gloss, however without any glow. The print on aluminium is the most popular entry-level product and is an extremely stylish way to showcase art prints, because it draws focus on the replica of the artwork.
• Poster (canvas material): The poster is a UV printed cotton canvas paper with a fine texture on the surface, that reminds the actual work of art. Please bear in mind, that depending on the absolute size of the poster we add a white margin of around 2-6cm round about the painting, which facilitates the framing.
• Acrylic glass print (with real glass coating): A glossy print on acrylic glass, which is sometimes referred to as a plexiglass print, will change an original into gorgeous décor. Beyond that, the acrylic print is a good alternative to aluminium or canvas fine art replicas. The major benefit of a plexiglass fine art print is that contrasts and details become more identifiable because of the precise gradation. The plexiglass protects your custom art replica against light and heat for many decades.

English: This painting shows the moment when the Swedish King Gustav II Adolf is killed on the battlefield at Lützen on 6 November, 1632. The brightly illuminated body of the dead king appears to be sliding off his horse, only to be caught by a horrified Swedish soldier. The king is portrayed as a hero and a martyr, a figure distinctly reminiscent of renditions of the dead Christ. But Wahlbom has also utilised the potential of the scene to show off his strongest technical skill – that of painting horses in various movements and light. Målningen skildrar det ögonblick då Gustav II Adolf dödas på slagfältet vid Lützen den 6 november 1632. Den döde kungen, starkt belyst, tycks glida ned från hästryggen för att strax fångas upp av en förfärad svensk soldat. Kungen framställs som hjälte och martyr, en gestalt som påminner starkt om skildringar av den döde Kristus. Samtidigt har Wahlbom utnyttjat scenens möjligheter
