Unknown, 1662 - View of Canton in China - fine art print

General information by Rijksmuseum (© Copyright - Rijksmuseum - Rijksmuseum)

During the 17th century European enterprises were refused entry into Canton. It was only in the 18th century that Europeans were permitted to establish themselves along the Pearl River. Chinese middlemen sold tea, porcelain and silk to the Westerners, who lived in isolation in their warehouses on the quay and never set foot in Canton itself.

Select your product material

We offer a range of different materials and sizes for every product. You can choose among the following product customization options:

• Aluminium dibond print (metal): An Aluminium Dibond print is a print with a true depth effect, which creates a modern look with a non-reflective surface structure. A direct Direct Print on Aluminum Dibond is the perfect introduction to fine replicas on aluminum. The colors of the print are luminous in the highest definition, fine details appear crisp.
• Canvas print: A printed canvas, which shall not be mistaken with a canvas painting, is a digital copy printed on a canvas material. The great advantage of canvas prints is that they are relatively low in weight, which means that it is easy and straightforward to hang your Canvas print without the use of extra wall-mounts. Canvas prints are suited for any kind of wall.
• Poster print (canvas material): The poster is a printed sheet of flat cotton canvas with a fine structure on the surface. It is designed for placing the fine art print in a personal frame. Please bear in mind, that depending on the absolute size of the canvas poster print we add a white margin 2 - 6cm around the work of art to facilitate the framing with a custom frame.
• Print on acrylic glass (with real glass coating): An acrylic glass print, often referenced as a UV print on plexiglass, will turn the original work of art into wonderful décor and is a good alternative to aluminium and canvas fine art replicas. Your own replica of the work of art is made with modern UV print technology. This has the impression of intense, sharp colors. The great upside of an acrylic glass fine art print is that contrasts and minor image details become more visible with the help of the subtle tonal gradation.
