How to Care for Your Print
Follow these steps to keep your print looking gallery fresh for decades.
Handling
Allow rolled prints to relax flat for 30 to 60 minutes. Handle by the edges with clean, dry hands and avoid touching the printed surface.
Placement
Avoid direct sunlight, heat sources and high humidity areas. North facing walls receive less UV. Use LED or incandescent lighting instead of fluorescent.
Framing
Use acid free mats and UV protective glass or acrylic for maximum longevity. Leave a small gap between print and glazing for airflow.
Cleaning
Dust framed glass with a soft cloth. Spray the cloth, not the glass. For unframed prints, use a dry microfibre cloth and never apply liquids to the surface.
Climate
Keep temperature at 18 to 24 degrees C and humidity at 40 to 60 percent. Avoid attics, basements and garages where conditions swing widely.
Storage
Store flat in acid free folders, interleaved with tissue paper, in a cool dark place. Never fold. Check stored prints annually.
⚠️ Avoid
- Prolonged direct sunlight or fluorescent lighting.
- Bathrooms, kitchens and areas above heat sources.
- Tape, adhesives or liquids applied directly to the print.
- Rolling with the image facing inward as this can crack the ink layer.
- Extreme or rapid temperature and humidity changes.
📊 Expected Lifespan
- 100+ years when framed with UV protective glazing and indirect light.
- 50 to 75 years when framed with standard glass and indirect light.
- 25 to 50 years when stored correctly in darkness.
Claude Monet: The Grand Canal, Venice (1908)
Bring the luminous atmosphere of early 20th-century Italy into your home with this magnificent reproduction of Claude Monet’s “The Grand Canal, Venice” (1908). Painted during the artist’s only visit to the legendary city, this work captures the fleeting mood of the lagoon, demonstrating Monet’s dedication to capturing light in its purest, most transient form. This famous piece focuses on the hazy view looking toward the majestic domes of Santa Maria della Salute, filtered through a characteristic Venetian fog.
A Study in Blue and Lavender Light
As a leading figure of Impressionism, Monet masterfully uses thick, broken brushstrokes to suggest movement and reflection on the water’s surface. Unlike many earlier depictions of Venice, Monet minimizes architectural detail, choosing instead to prioritize the ethereal quality of the environment. The color palette is dominated by soft blues, lavender, and pale pinks, making the water and the sky merge into a single, vibrant entity. The strong vertical lines of the mooring posts in the foreground provide a striking contrast to the diffuse background, drawing the viewer deeper into the scene.
Elevate Your Space with Classic Art
This striking art print is perfect for those who appreciate classic European landscapes, the history of Impressionist painting, or simply desire a calming yet vibrant focal point for their living room, study, or bedroom. It serves as an elegant homage to one of the most beloved masters of modern art, offering a window onto the timeless beauty of the Italian city of canals.
