Materials you can pick from
In the product dropdown selection you can pick your prefered size and material. The following sizes and materials are the options we offer you for individualization:
- Canvas print: The canvas print, which should not be mistaken with a painting on a canvas, is a digital copy printed onto cotton canvas material. The great advantage of canvas prints is that they are relatively low in weight, which means that it is easy to hang your Canvas print without extra wall-mounts. A canvas print is suited for all kinds of walls.
- Metal (aluminium dibond print): Aluminium Dibond prints are prints on metal with a true effect of depth. For our Direct Aluminium Dibond print, we print your chosen work of art on the aluminium white-primed surface. The bright and white sections of the original work of art shimmer with a silk gloss but without glow.
- Acrylic glass print: An print on acrylic glass, often described as a an art print on plexiglass, changes your favorite original into amazing décor. The work of art is custom-made thanks to the help of state-of-the-art UV direct printing technology. The effect of this are rich and impressive colors. With an acrylic glass fine art print contrasts and granular color details become exposed because of the subtle tonal gradation in the picture. Our acrylic glass protects your chosen fine art print against sunlight and heat for between 40-60 years.
- Poster print (canvas material): The poster print is a UV printed canvas paper with a fine texture on the surface. A print poster is best suited for framing your fine art print in a custom-made frame. Please note, that depending on the absolute size of the poster we add a white margin between 2-6cm round about the work of art, which facilitates the framing with your custom frame.
Legal note: We try whatever we can to depict our art products as clearly as possible and to demonstrate them visually. Nonetheless, the colors of the print materials, as well as the print result might diverge marginally from the image on your device's screen. Depending on your settings of your screen and the quality of the surface, not all color pigments are printed one hundret percent realistically. Since all the fine art prints are printed and processed manually, there might as well be slight discrepancies in the exact position and the size of the motif.
Supplemental information by the museum (© - by The Metropolitan Museum of Art - The Metropolitan Museum of Art)
In 1590 Ligozzi created a series of elaborate, allegorical drawings of the Seven Deadly Sins (six still exist). This painting, which is a fragment, depicts the central figures of the allegory of Avarice, the drawing for which is in the National Gallery, Washington. As described in emblem books, Avarice is shown as a pale woman holding a bag of money. The threatening skeleton suggests that the artist was inspired as well by other representations of the vice in either literature (perhaps Dante) or the visual arts.
