For every product we offer different materials & sizes. We allow yout to choose among the following variants:

• The poster print (canvas material): A poster print is a printed canvas with a slightly rough finish on the surface. It is appropriate for putting your art print using a special frame. Please keep in mind, that depending on the size of the poster print we add a white margin of around 2-6cm round about the print, which facilitates the framing with your custom frame.
• Canvas: A printed canvas material stretched on a wood stretcher frame. A canvas print has the advantage of being low in weight. That means, it is easy to hang your Canvas print without additional wall-mounts. Canvas prints are suited for all kinds of walls.
• Acrylic glass print (with real glass coating): An acrylic glass print, which is sometimes denoted as a UV print on plexiglass, will transform the original into marvellous home decoration and makes a distinct alternative to canvas or dibond fine art prints. The work of art is being manufactured thanks to the help of modern UV print machines. The great advantage of an acrylic glass fine art copy is that contrasts and small artwork details will be visible with the help of the very fine gradation of the picture. Our real glass coating protects your selected fine art print against sunlight and heat for many years to come.

Original information about the artwork from The Metropolitan Museum of Art website (© - The Metropolitan Museum of Art - The Metropolitan Museum of Art)

In 1763, d’Angiviller was in charge of the household of the dauphin’s sons; he developed a close relationship with the future Louis XVI, who would later name him director general of the Batîments du Roi. He was deeply committed to his post, which was the equivalent of minister of culture. This carefully elaborated, brightly colored picture displays the intimacy and liveliness of the best Rococo painting. It is not a state portrait but a rather personal one, on a relatively small, domestic scale.
