Artwork Details
Nocturne: Blue and Silver, Chelsea (1871) by James McNeill Whistler is a view from Battersea Bridge looking across the Thames towards Chelsea. The tower of Chelsea Old Church is visible on the right, and a fisherman stands in the foreground. This is the first of his series of Nocturnes, paintings intended to convey the beauty and tranquillity of the River Thames. The influence of Japanese woodblock prints is evident from the limited range of colors and the butterfly signature. Whistler drew inspiration from "One Hundred Famous Views of Edo" by Hiroshige.

Ready to Hang Canvas
Canvas prints, or wrapped canvas, are hand-stretched over solid wood like the base of traditional painting. Canvases come with black backboard and hanging wire installed, ready to hang on your wall — without a frame.
Stretched canvas combines a classic medium with a modern finish, an ideal way to present artwork for display.
Canvas Float Frame
We offer modern frames intended to complement any art. Float frames feature a visible gap ("float") between the frame and canvas. No glass/glazing is used - canvases have a mildly reflective satin finish.
