Gustave Courbet, 1865 - The Deer - fine art print

Additional information on the original artwork from the museum (© Copyright - by The Metropolitan Museum of Art - The Metropolitan Museum of Art)

In the 1860s Courbet painted a series of snowscapes remarkable for their variegated paint handling and the contrast between ruddy browns and whites, which are often, as here, mixed with an icy blue. The deer that appear in a number of these works signify the remoteness of the settings, although man’s presence is often suggested: the buck in this picture seems to look directly back at the viewer.

Select a product material variant

For every product we offer different materials & sizes. Thus, we allow you to choose among the following options:

• The canvas print: The canvas print is a printed cotton canvas stretched on a wood stretcher. A canvas produces the exclusive look of three dimensionality. Also, a canvas creates a attractive and pleasing appearance. The advantage of canvas prints is that they are relatively low in weight. This means, it is quite simple to hang the Canvas print without the help of additional wall-mounts. Canvas prints are suitable for any type of wall.
• Poster print (canvas material): The poster print is a printed canvas paper with a granular texture on the surface. A poster is optimally suited for placing your art print using a personal frame. Please note, that depending on the size of the poster print we add a white margin of something between 2-6cm round about the artwork, which facilitates the framing.
• Aluminium dibond: Aluminium Dibond prints are metal prints with a true depth effect. The bright and white parts of the work of art shimmer with a silk gloss but without glow. The print on aluminium is the most popular entry-level product and is a truly contemporary way to display art prints, because it draws attention on the image.
• Printed acrylic glass (with real glass coating): An acrylic glass print, which is sometimes described as a plexiglass print, changes an original artwork into amazing home decoration.
