Choose your preferred fine art print material variant

For every art print we offer a range of different materials & sizes. That is why, we allow you to choose among the following options:

• Printed poster (canvas material): The Artprinta poster print is a UV printed canvas with a slightly roughened finish on the surface, that reminds the actual work of art. It is designed for framing your art replica in a special frame. Please keep in mind, that depending on the absolute size of the poster we add a white margin of something between 2-6 cm around the work of art, which facilitates the framing with your custom frame.
• Aluminium dibond (metal print): Aluminium Dibond prints are metal prints with a true effect of depth. A non-reflective surface creates a contemporary look. For the Print On Aluminum Dibond, we print the work of art on the aluminium white-primed surface. The bright & white parts of the original artwork shine with a silk gloss but without the glow. This direct UV print on aluminium is one of the most demanded entry-level products and is a sophisticated way to showcase art prints, because it puts the viewer’s focus on the image.
• The canvas print: The canvas print, not to be mistaken with a painting on a canvas, is a digital copy applied on a cotton canvas fabric. A canvas print has the advantage of being relatively low in weight, which means that it is easy and straightforward to hang your Canvas print without the use of additional wall-mounts. Canvas prints are suited for any type of wall.
• The glossy acrylic glass print: An print on acrylic glass, often described as a UV print on plexiglass, makes the original into marvellous home decoration. The work of art is being printed with modern UV print technology. It makes intense and impressive color tones. With an acrylic glass fine art print contrasts and smaller image details become identifiable with the help of the delicate gradation of the picture. The acrylic glass protects your selected art replica against light and heat for many years to come.

Legal note: We try our utmost to depict the products as closely as possible and to showcase them visually in our shop. At the same time, the tone of the print products and the print result can diverge somehwat from the image on your device's monitor. Depending on your screen settings and the nature of the surface, color pigments can unfortunately not be printed one hundret percent realistically. Because all our art reproductions are printed and processed by hand, there may also be minor deviations in the size and exact position of the motif.

In this mythological scene, the elderly couple Philemon and Baucis offer their generous hospitality to the gods Jupiter and Mercury, who have disguised themselves as weary travelers. Oil lamps and candles gently illuminate the various surfaces of the dark interior: wooden furnishings, glass and ceramic vessels, glistening grapes, scaly fish, and even a framed painting hanging on the wall.
