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 18–24 °C and humidity at 40–60%. 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.
- 50–75 years when framed with standard glass and indirect light.
- 25–50 years when stored correctly in darkness.
This Gauguin landscape print presents a refined look at Paul Gauguin’s 1886 work, La Montagne Sainte-Marguerite, created during his influential stay in Brittany. The composition captures the rural serenity of the French countryside, utilizing a palette that bridges the gap between traditional Impressionism and the artist’s developing interest in Synthetism. In this specific depiction, the viewer is positioned looking across a green meadow toward a cluster of village homes, characterized by their steep, thatched roofs and stone construction.
The Historical Significance of the Gauguin Landscape Print
Gauguin’s time in Pont-Aven marked a departure from the Parisian art scene. This Gauguin landscape print represents a pivotal moment in 1886 when he began to simplify forms and experiment with bolder blocks of color. Unlike the fleeting light effects sought by Monet, Gauguin focuses on the structural permanence of the terrain. The presence of the Sainte-Marguerite mountain in the background provides a sense of scale, anchoring the rustic architecture of the village. For collectors of Gauguin art, this piece showcases the early rhythmic brushstrokes that would eventually define his career.
Visual Details and Compositional Harmony
The visual arrangement of this 1886 art is meticulously balanced. The foreground features a rich, ochre-toned path separated from the central field by a weathered stone wall. This wall acts as a horizontal guide, drawing the eye toward the textured trees on the left. These trees are rendered with dabs of green, yellow, and orange, suggesting the transition into autumn. The houses are not merely dwellings but geometric components that interact with the surrounding vegetation. The Gauguin landscape print emphasizes these shapes, highlighting the interplay between the organic lines of the mountain and the sharp angles of the cottage roofs.
