What material do you preferr?

For every fine art print we offer different sizes & materials. In order match your personal requirements perfectly, you can choose among the following product customization options:

• Metal (aluminium dibond print): Aluminium Dibond prints are metal prints with a true effect of depth - for a modern impression and a non-reflective surface. For the Aluminium Dibond option, we print the chosen artpiece right on the surface of the aluminum material. The white and bright parts of the artpiece shine with a silky gloss but without glare. This UV print on aluminium is one of the most demanded entry-level products and is an extremely contemporary way to display art prints, as it puts 100% of the viewer’s attention on the replica of the artwork.
• Canvas: A printed canvas stretched on a wooden frame. A canvas print has the advantage of being relatively low in weight, which implies that it is quite simple to hang up your Canvas print without any wall-mounts. Hence, canvas prints are suited for any kind of wall.
• Printed poster on canvas material: The poster print is a UV printed canvas with a slightly roughened texture on the surface, that reminds the original masterpiece. Please note, that depending on the absolute size of the poster we add a white margin between 2-6 cm around the work of art in order to facilitate the framing with your custom frame.
• Glossy acrylic glass print (with real glass coating on top): An print on acrylic glass, which is often named as a plexiglass print, makes your favorite artwork into beautiful home décor. The great upside of a plexiglass art print is that contrasts and small details become more exposed with the help of the very subtle gradation. Our real glass coating protects your chosen art replica against light and external influences for between 40-60 years.

General description by The Metropolitan Museum of Art (© - by The Metropolitan Museum of Art - The Metropolitan Museum of Art)

Leutze's depiction of Washington's attack on the Hessians at Trenton on December 25, 1776, was a great success in America and in Germany. Leutze began his first version of this subject in 1849. It was damaged in his studio by fire in 1850 and, although restored and acquired by the Bremen Kunsthalle, was again destroyed in a bombing raid in 1942. In 1850, Leutze began this version of the subject, which was placed on exhibition in New York during October of 1851. At this showing Marshall O. Roberts bought the canvas for the then-enormous sum of $10,000. In 1853, M. Knoedler published an engraving of it. Many studies for the painting exist, as do copies by other artists.
