Models ☶ Seurat ☳ Canvas

Models (1888) by Georges Seurat, also known as The Three Models and Les Poseuses, is notable for recreating an existing painting: the left background is part of his painting A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte. This painting was a response to critics who judged that work as cold, lifeless, and lacking sufficient realism. The title Les Poseuses (The Posers) may refer more to the critics than to the models who appear to be preparing, not posing, for the artist. The painting depicts the earlier canvas on the rear wall of a studio, with three models in various states of undress. Clothing items such as umbrellas, hats and shoes strewn about the studio draw a further connection to Sunday Afternoon.

⿴ About Stretched Canvas

Stretched canvas art is created from a giclée print on canvas (instead of paper), and like a traditional painting, the canvas is hand-stretched over a solid wood frame. It can be mounted in a float frame, or displayed on its own. The sides of the canvas are finished in a solid color that complements the artwork, creating a modern masterpiece ready to hang on your wall, without a frame.

⿻ Materials

Giclée printed with eco-solvent inks to resist fading for over 100 years

Canvases are archival-grade, acid-free, satin-finish polycotton fabric

Frames and stretcher bars are solid wood with black backboard and hanging wire installed
