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.
The Cinematic Artistry of Days of Heaven
Capturing the ephemeral beauty and tragic romance of Terrence Malick’s 1978 masterpiece, Days of Heaven, this highly sought-after poster by renowned artist Laurent Durieux is a must-have piece for serious film collectors. Known for his elegant, vintage-inspired style, Durieux perfectly translates the film’s grand, yet intimate, atmosphere onto the canvas.
A Tribute to Visual Poetry
The poster features the protagonist, Abby, standing amidst the sprawling wheat fields of the Texas Panhandle, bathed in the iconic golden-hour lighting that defined Nestor Almendros’ Oscar-winning cinematography. The striking composition focuses on Abby’s silhouette against the burning orange sky, with the imposing farmer’s mansion looming in the background, hinting at the class conflicts and doomed love triangle at the heart of the story.
Look closely at the detail in her blue corset—Durieux masterfully incorporates the subtle silhouettes of characters Bill and the Farmer, symbolizing their tangled relationship and the emotional pressure tightening around Abby. This art piece serves as a sophisticated homage to one of the most visually stunning films ever made, bringing the quiet intensity and epic scope of Malick’s vision directly to your home cinema or gallery wall. This print, originally released by Mondo, represents the pinnacle of modern movie poster design.
