Pick your favorite product material

For every art print we offer different materials & sizes. The following sizes and materials are the options we offer you for individualization:

• Printed poster (canvas material): The poster print is a printed canvas with a slightly rough structure on the surface. A poster print is best suited for framing the fine art print with the help of a customized frame. Please note, that depending on the size of the poster print we add a white margin of approximately 2-6 cm round about the print, which facilitates the framing with a custom frame.
• Glossy acrylic glass print: A glossy print on acrylic glass, which is sometimes described as a fine art print on plexiglass, will change the original artwork into stunning wall decoration. The major upside of a plexiglass print is that contrasts and also granular details will be more visible thanks to the very fine tonal gradation. Our acrylic glass protects your chosen art replica against light and heat for many years.
• Canvas print: A canvas print, not to be mistaken with an artwork painted on a canvas, is a digital copy printed on a UV direct printing machine. A canvas produces a extra look of three dimensionality. Hanging a canvas print: The great advantage of canvas prints is that they are relatively low in weight, which means that it is easy and straightforward to hang the Canvas print without the support of any wall-mounts. Hence, a canvas print is suited for all kinds of walls.
• Aluminium dibond print (metal): Aluminium Dibond prints are metal prints with a true depth. The colors of the print are vivid and luminous, the details appear crisp.

Important information: We try everything in order to depict the products as clearly as possible and to exhibit them visually in our shop.

Depending on the screen settings and the condition of the surface, not all color pigments will be printed as realisitcally as the digital version depicted here. Bearing in mind that all the art prints are printed and processed manually, there may also be minor deviations in the motif's exact position and the size.

In the early nineteenth century, children—especially those living in crowded port cities—died from a host of diseases, including tuberculosis, dysentery, typhoid fever, diphtheria, pneumonia, and yellow fever. The funeral pictured here is being held at the New Methodist Church, with the white picket fence, on Second (now Forsyth) and Bayard Streets. A chain has been stretched across the street to block traffic as eight young women—clad in all white—escort the child’s coffin at the head of the procession. Just to the right of the church stands Fire House 2, which is next to a corner grocery.
