Henry W. Waugh, 1855 - Landscape with Bridge - fine art print

Additional information by Indianapolis Museum of Art (© - Indianapolis Museum of Art - Indianapolis Museum of Art)

Henry Waugh came to Indianapolis as a member of a theatrical troupe when he was about twenty years old. During the winter of 1853-54 he assisted Jacob Cox in painting a thirty-scene temperance panorama. Waugh wanted to study in Europe, but did not have the funds to make the trip, so he joined a circus and traveled throughout the United States for three years. He saved enough money to study for six years in Rome. Waugh never had the opportunity to practice his new skill in America, because he died of consumption on his way back to the United States. Very few examples of his work survive, but contemporary writers praised Waugh as a genius “who could paint a picture on the stage to music, in ten minutes.”

Landscape with Bridge, which is probably a scene near Indianapolis, exhibits a luminosity and handling of color that are reminiscent of Jacob Cox’s landscapes. In landscapes such as this one, Waugh and his contemporaries altered natural views to create organized compositions that reflect their European training and nineteenth century landscape techniques.

For every art print we offer a range of different materials & sizes. Choose among the following product options now to match your preferences in size and material:

• Canvas print: A printed canvas, not to be confused with a painting on a canvas, is a digital replica printed directly on canvas. A canvas makes a unique impression of three-dimensionality. Besides, canvas print makes a nice and positive atmosphere. A canvas print of this work of art will allow you to transform your own fine art print into a large size artpiece as you would see in a gallery. Canvas prints are relatively low in weight, which implies that it is quite simple to hang up your Canvas print without extra wall-mounts. A canvas print is suitable for any kind of wall.
• Aluminium dibond print (metal): These are metal prints on aluminium dibond material with an impressive effect of depth. A non-reflective surface make a modern look. For our Aluminium Dibond option, we print your work of art right on the aluminium white-primed surface. Colors are luminous and bright, the fine details of the print are crisp and clear, and you can really notice the matte appearance of the art print surface.
• Printed poster (canvas material): The Artprinta poster is a UV printed canvas paper with a slightly rough texture on the surface. Please keep in mind, that depending on the size of the poster we add a white margin of approximately 2-6cm round about the painting in order to facilitate the framing.
• The glossy acrylic glass print (with real glass coating): An print on acrylic glass, often referred to as a fine art print on plexiglass, will convert the original artwork into great home décor. The artwork is being custom-made thanks to the help of modern UV print machines. It makes vibrant and sharp colors. The great benefit of an acrylic glass fine art print is that contrasts and granular painting details become more recognizeable because of the granular tonal gradation in the print. The real glass coating protects your selected fine art print against light and heat for between 40-60 years.
