The Aluminium Dibond Print is your best introduction to art reproductions on aluminum. The white & bright parts of the artwork shimmer with a silk gloss, however without any glare. Colors are luminous and bright, the details of the print are crisp. This print on aluminium is one of the most popular entry-level products and is a contemporary way to showcase fine art prints, as it puts the viewer’s focus on the whole artwork.
• Canvas: A printed canvas, not to be confused with a painting on a canvas, is a digital replica applied directly on canvas. It makes the sculptural effect of three-dimensionality. Canvas prints are relatively low in weight, meaning that it is quite simple to hang your Canvas print without extra wall-mounts. A canvas print is suitable for all types of walls.
• Acrylic glass print: A glossy acrylic glass print, which is sometimes described as a print on plexiglass, will turn an original artwork into gorgeous décor. Further, it offers a viable alternative option to canvas or dibond art prints. Your own copy of the work of art will be made thanks to the help of modern UV printing technology. The plexiglass protects your selected fine art print against light and heat for many years to come.
• Poster (canvas material): The poster is a UV printed canvas paper with a nice structure on the surface, which reminds the original work of art. Please bear in mind, that depending on the size of the poster we add a white margin of something between 2-6cm round about the print motif to facilitate the framing with a custom frame.

This early picture by Cuyp dates from about 1643–44. The figures resemble those painted by the artist's father, Jacob Gerritsz. Cuyp, but the canvas is not one of their collaborative efforts. Many Dutch artists painted idyllic views of the Dutch countryside, but this one is distinguished by its charming naïveté: the pipers play, the animals assemble, and the dog seems to know it is time to go home.
