• Printed poster (canvas material): The Artprinta poster is a UV printed flat canvas paper with a granular surface finish. The print poster is particularly used for framing the art print in a custom-made frame. Please bear in mind, that depending on the absolute size of the canvas poster print we add a white margin of around 2-6cm around the print to facilitate the framing.
• Printed acrylic glass (with real glass coating): The print on acrylic glass, often referred to as a an art print on plexiglass, will convert the original artwork into brilliant décor and forms a viable alternative option to canvas or aluminium dibond art prints. The major upside of a plexiglass fine art copy is that contrasts and also granular color details become more identifiable with the help of the delicate tonal gradation.

Originally a porcelain painter, Roesen came to New York around 1848, possibly as a result of political upheavals in his native Germany. His lavish, highly detailed still-lifes celebrate nature’s bounty while showcasing his technical virtuosity. Such depictions of abundance reflected the increasing availability and variety of fruit in this period, the result of improvements in cultivation and transportation.
