Sun-streaked clouds scudding across the sky dominate this placid landscape, a classic example of the luminous style that made Cuyp a beloved artist among eighteenth- and nineteenth-century collectors. Based on studies made in nature, the painting is nonetheless a studio confection. Resting livestock and agrarian laborers appear as timeless parts of the landscape in a reassuring vision for the landowning collectors able to display such a monumental scene.

Materials our customers can choose from

We offer a range of various sizes and materials for every product. Pick your favorite size and material among the following options:

• The acrylic glass print: A glossy print on acrylic glass, often labelled as a plexiglass print, will transform your original work of art into marvellous home decoration. The major upside of an acrylic glass fine art print is that contrasts and smaller artwork details become more visible due to the precise tonal gradation. The plexiglass protects your chosen art replica against light and external influences for several decades.
• Canvas: The canvas print, which should not be mistaken with a painting on a canvas, is an image applied onto canvas material. A printed canvas of your favorite artwork will provide you with the opportunity of transforming your art print into a large work of art as you would see in a gallery. How do I hang a canvas print on the wall? The advantage of canvas prints is that they are relatively low in weight, which implies that it is quite simple to hang your Canvas print without the use of extra wall-mounts. Hence, a canvas print is suitable for all types of walls.
• Poster print on canvas material: A poster is a UV printed canvas paper with a granular finish on the surface, which resembles the actual work of art. Please note, that depending on the size of the poster we add a white margin of approximately 2-6 cm around the work of art, which facilitates the framing with your custom frame.
• Metal (aluminium dibond print): An Aluminium Dibond print is a material with an impressive depth effect - for a modern impression and a non-reflective surface structure. A direct Aluminium Dibond Print is your ideal introduction to fine prints on aluminum. For your Aluminium Dibond print, we print your artpiece right onto the aluminium white-primed surface. The colors are bright and vivid, the details of the print appear crisp, and you can perceive the matte appearance of the fine art print.
