Artwork Details
The Arnolfini Portrait (1434) by Jan van Eyck is considered one of the most original and complex paintings in Western art due to its stunning detail, complex iconography, geometric perspective, and expansion of space with the use of a mirror. It is a full-length double portrait depicting the Italian merchant Giovanni di Nicolao Arnolfini, his wife and dog in their residence in Bruges. The dog appears to be a Griffon terrier, or early Affenpinscher. The couple poses in a luxurious upstairs room with a chest and bed, with a cherry tree seen outside a stained glass window. Van Eyck's elaborate signature on the back wall may indicate the portrait was a legal record of the marriage, complete with witness signature. It reads: Johannes de eyck fuit hic 1434 (Jan van Eyck was here).

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.
