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 Marc Chagall Art Print captures the 1972 work titled Le départ d’arlequin with meticulous attention to detail and color accuracy. Produced during the latter part of the artist’s career, this piece exemplifies the lyrical and dreamlike qualities that defined his contribution to modernism. The central figure, a Harlequin rendered in vibrant greens and reds, sits atop a stylized equine creature, navigating a visual field saturated with deep ultramarine and emerald tones. Every brushstroke is reproduced to maintain the integrity of the original medium, ensuring that the textural qualities of the oil on canvas are visible in this high-quality reproduction.
The Composition of this Marc Chagall Art Print
The visual arrangement within this Marc Chagall Art Print follows a characteristic 1970s surrealist painting structure, where gravity and perspective are secondary to emotional resonance and symbolic placement. The Harlequin, a recurring motif in European art history, is presented here with a green face, suggesting a fusion between the human form and the natural world. Beside him, a spectral female figure in white and a dark avian silhouette contribute to the narrative of departure and transition. The crescent moon in the upper right quadrant provides a focal point of cool light, balancing the warmth of the red accents found on the Harlequin’s costume and the animal’s flank.
