This unfinished picture dates to Degas’s early years as an art student in Paris. Rather than using a fresh canvas, he painted the nude on top of another figure study, which is partially visible underneath. The toes and foot of the earlier figure—possibly the same model—may be seen in the lower left corner, just below the male nude’s head, while his bearded face appears in the area of the reclining nude’s foot.

A canvas of your favorite work of art will allow you to transform your art print into a large size work of art like you know from art galleries. Canvas prints are relatively low in weight, meaning that it is quite simple to hang your Canvas print without any wall-mounts. Canvas prints are suitable for any type of wall.
• Printed acrylic glass (with real glass coating): The acrylic glass print, often labelled as a UV print on plexiglass, will turn the artwork into beautiful décor. In addition, the acrylic glass fine art print makes a distinct alternative to dibond and canvas fine art prints. With an acrylic glass fine art print sharp contrasts and also details become more identifiable thanks to the precise gradation in the picture.
• Aluminium dibond print: Aluminium Dibond prints are metal prints with an impressive effect of depth. A direct Aluminium Dibond Print is the best start to the sophisticated world of fine art prints made on aluminum. The bright parts of the artpiece shimmer with a silky gloss but without glow.
• The poster print on canvas material: The poster is a printed sheet of flat canvas with a slight structure on the surface. Please bear in mind, that depending on the size of the poster print we add a white margin of something between 2-6cm around the artwork, which facilitates the framing with your custom frame.
