Paolo Veronese and Workshop, 1580 - The Annunciation - fine art print

Supplementary description from The Cleveland Museum of Art website (© Copyright - The Cleveland Museum of Art - The Cleveland Museum of Art)

Although Veronese is best known for his large-scale, pageant-like presentations, here the artist has taken the narrative of the Annunciation (the announcement of the angel Gabriel to the Virgin Mary that she would conceive and bear a son) and compressed the figures close to one another, creating a startling intimacy. According to a tradition established by the medieval writer Saint Bernard, Mary has been reading from the Old Testament prophecy of Isaiah (7:14), "A young woman is with child and she will bear a son."

The product dropdown menu gives you the opportunity to choose your individual size and material. You can select your favorite material and size between the following alternatives:

• The canvas print: The UV printed canvas mounted on a wood frame. It makes the sculptural impression of three dimensionality. The advantage of canvas prints is that they are relatively low in weight, which means that it is quite simple to hang up the Canvas print without the support of extra wall-mounts. Because of thatcanvas prints are suitable for all kinds of walls.
• Aluminium dibond print (metal): Aluminium Dibond prints are metal prints with an outstanding effect of depth. A non-reflective surface creates a modern impression. For the Aluminium Dibond print, we print your favorite work of art right on the aluminium surface. The bright sections of the original artwork shine with a silky gloss but without glow. Colors are luminous, the fine details of the print appear crisp, and the print has a a matte look you can literally feel.
• The poster print on canvas material: The Artprinta poster print is a printed canvas paper with a slightly roughened finish on the surface. Please note, that depending on the size of the canvas poster print we add a white margin of around 2-6cm round about the work of art, which facilitates the framing with your custom frame.
• Acrylic glass print (with real glass coating): An acrylic glass print, which is sometimes referred to as a fine art print on plexiglass, will turn your favorite original artwork into stunning décor. With a glossy acrylic glass fine art print contrasts as well as smaller image details become visible due to the very subtle gradation in the print.

About this product

Important note: We try what we can to describe the art products as exact as possible and to demonstrate them visually in our shop. However, the pigments of the printed materials, as well as the print result can diverge marginally from the representation on the monitor. Depending on the settings of your screen and the condition of the surface, not all color pigments are printed as exactly as the digital version shown here. In view of the fact that the art reproductions are printed and processed by hand, there may also be minor discrepancies in the exact position and the size of the motif.
