The product material choices

In the product dropdown lists you can pick your individual size and material. You can choose your your favorite size and material among the following options:

• Canvas: A printed canvas, which shall not be mistaken with a canvas painting, is a digital replica applied directly on canvas material. A canvas generates the plastic effect of three dimensionality. Further, a canvas print makes a charming, pleasant atmosphere. Canvas Prints have the advantage of being low in weight. This means, it is quite simple to hang up the Canvas print without the support of any wall-mounts. Because of thata canvas print is suited for all types of walls.
• Aluminium dibond print: An Aluminium Dibond print is a print with an impressive depth - for a modern look and a non-reflective surface structure. The Aluminium Dibond Print is the excellent start to art prints with aluminum. For our Direct Print On Aluminum Dibond, we print your artpiece onto the aluminium white-primed surface. The bright and white parts of the artpiece shine with a silky gloss but without glow. The colors of the print are luminous, the fine details of the print appear very clear, and you can literally feel the matte appearance of the fine art print.

Your own copy of the artwork will be custom-made thanks to modern UV direct print technology. The image effect of this are vibrant, impressive colors.

Cochin (now Kochi), on India’s southwest coast, was a Portuguese fortified town from 1500. In 1663 the Dutch East India Company captured the town for its pepper trade. The Dutch reduced the fort by two thirds so that it would be easier to defend. Portuguese monasteries and churches were converted into warehouses.
