Art Prints
Our giclee art prints are produced on heavyweight 200gsm matte art paper chosen for its smooth, non-reflective surface. Unlike glossy prints that throw back reflections from windows and overhead lights, the matte finish scatters light evenly across the sheet, so the artwork reads clearly from every angle and in any room.
Each print is made with archival pigment inks laid down by precision giclee printers, the same technology trusted by museums and limited-edition print studios. The result is deep, stable color with fine tonal transitions that hold their intensity for decades when displayed indoors away from direct sunlight.
The paper itself is museum grade: acid-free, lignin-free, and manufactured to resist yellowing and embrittlement over time. Ships unframed in a protective roll, ready to be framed.
*Frame is not included with this option.
Hand-stretched on FSC pine. Greenguard Gold inks. Ready to hang.
*Ready to hang out of the box.
Gallery Canvas
Each canvas is printed on a 333 g/m² cotton-polyester composite with a proprietary coating that produces deep blacks, rich saturation, and accurate tonal transitions. The matte finish absorbs light rather than reflecting it, eliminating glare from windows and overhead lighting so the artwork stays readable from any position in the room.
The inks are HP Latex, UL GREENGUARD GOLD certified. This means the inks meet the same air quality standards required in hospitals, schools, and nurseries. Non-toxic, odor-free, and safe for any room in your home. HP rates them for up to 200 years of fade resistance indoors, away from direct sunlight.
The canvas is gallery-wrapped by hand over a 1.25 inch (3.2 cm) radiata pine stretcher bar sourced from FSC-certified renewable forests. The wood is kiln-dried, knot-free, and warp-free, engineered to hold tension without sagging over time. A sawtooth hanger and rubber bumpers come pre-installed on the back, so the piece is ready to hang the moment it arrives.
*No framing required.
Solid wood floater frame. Floating reveal. Gallery-ready.
*Available on the framed canvas option.
Framed Canvas
The floater frame is milled from solid wood with a matte finish that absorbs light instead of bouncing it back. Unlike glossy mouldings that pick up room reflections, the matte finish keeps attention on the artwork.
The frame sits slightly outside the canvas edge, creating a clean 0.5-inch floating reveal. This gap gives the wrapped canvas a suspended, weightless look, the same presentation used in contemporary galleries and museum installations.
Inside the frame, the canvas is the same 333 g/m² cotton-polyester composite printed with HP Latex GREENGUARD GOLD inks, hand-stretched over FSC-certified radiata pine. Every piece ships with hanging hardware pre-installed.
*Available on the framed canvas option.
Archimede Bresciani (1881–1939) was an Italian painter from the Mantua area, known as Bresciani da Gazoldo for his close connection to his hometown. At seventeen he frescoed the facade of the parish church of Gazoldo degli Ippoliti; he then attended evening classes at the School of Art in Mantua and studied at the Brera Academy of Fine Arts in Milan under Cesare Tallone. In Milan he came into contact with the Scapigliatura and with the pointillist painting of Segantini. He exhibited at the Venice Biennale from 1910 and was invited almost without interruption until 1938; in 1940, a year after his death in Milan, the 22nd Biennale dedicated a room to him.
Saint Mary Magdalene (Italian: Santa Maria Maddalena) is an oil painting signed and dated at lower left "Bresciani da Gazoldo 1924." It shows Mary Magdalene half-length, her face turned upward and her very long hair covering her breasts, painted with the almost photographic realism that marks Bresciani's technique. The painting is cited in Guido Marangoni's article "L'arte Internazionale a Venezia," published in La Grande Illustrazione d'Italia in August 1924. Its image is published on Google Arts & Culture by Mantova Museo Urbano Diffuso.
