Carl Larsson, 1896 - Martha Winslow as a Girl - fine art print

(© Copyright - Nationalmuseum Stockholm - www.nationalmuseum.se)

English: The popularity of Carl Larsson’s pictures of his own family made him much sought-after for portraits of children. Parents among the wealthy, art-loving bourgeoisie in Stockholm were particularly keen to have a portrait of their offspring by Larsson. He often refused, and once even turned down a request from the royal family. The girl in this portrait is the daughter of an American diplomat stationed in Stockholm. She was depicted in Carl Larsson’s studio on Glasbruksgatan on Södermalm. Framgången med bilderna av den egna familjen gjorde att Carl Larsson blev eftersökt som barnporträttmålare. De beställningar han accepterade kom särskilt från föräldrar i en krets av högborgerliga, konstintresserade Stockholmsfamiljer. Ofta sade han nej, en gång till och med till en förfrågan från kungahuset. I det här fallet är flickan dotter till en amerikansk diplomat, stationerad i Stockholm. Hon är avbildad i Carl Larssons ateljé på Glasbruksgatan på Södermalm.

For our Direct Print On Aluminum Dibond, we print your artpiece on the surface of the white-primed aluminum material. The bright and white parts of the artwork shine with a silk gloss, however without glare. The colors are luminous, fine details appear crisp, and you can notice the matte appearance of the product. This print on Aluminum Dibond is one of the most popular entry-level products and is a truly sophisticated way to showcase fine art prints, as it draws focus on the replica of the artwork.
• Acrylic glass print: The acrylic glass print, often referenced as a fine art print on plexiglass, will convert your favorite original artwork into stunning décor and makes a distinct alternative to dibond or canvas fine art prints. Your favorite artwork is being manufactured with the help of modern UV print machines. This creates the effect of intense, sharp colors. With an acrylic glass art print sharp contrasts as well as minor image details become more exposed due to the very fine tonal gradation. The plexiglass with real glass coating protects your custom art print against sunlight and external influences for between 4 and six decades.
