The Artwork
About This Print
This Kevin Cooley print documents one of the world’s most photographed aviation phenomena — the low-altitude final approach over Maho Beach at Princess Juliana International Airport, St. Maarten, where arriving aircraft pass directly over sunbathers at rooftop height. Cooley’s 2007 Air France image captures the moment with the formal precision and compositional clarity that elevates it above casual documentation. This airplane landing photo is aviation wall art made by a fine art photographer, not a spotter — and the difference shows. This Kevin Cooley print is beach airplane art at its most graphically powerful.
Cooley’s work explores the intersection of nature, technology, and the sublime, and this St. Maarten plane print sits squarely in that territory: the Caribbean light, the jet’s scale against the sky, and the geometry of descent combining into an image that is both thrilling and formally complete.

After It Arrives
How to Frame & Display Your Print
Four simple steps, tube to wall — no tools, no specialist knowledge.
-
Unroll & Let It Relax
Remove from the tube and lay face-down on a clean flat surface for 20–30 minutes. The 200 GSM matte stock self-relaxes — any shipping curl releases without heat or moisture.
-
Pick a Standard Frame
Every size matches a standard off-the-shelf frame — IKEA HOVSTA, Target Threshold, Amazon Basics. An 18×24" drops in directly. No trimming, no custom framing.
-
Glass Is Optional
Our matte finish eliminates glare, so hanging without glass often shows more detail — particularly deep blacks and shadow gradients. If you prefer glass, use UV-protective acrylic.
-
Avoid Direct UV Sunlight
Archival pigment inks are rated for 75+ years indoors. Choose a wall with indirect or diffused natural light for the longest possible display life.
