Charles Willson Peale, 1781 - George Washington by die Slag van Princeton - fyn kunsdruk

Bykomende inligting oor die oorspronklike kunswerk deur die museum se webwerf (© Kopiereg - deur Yale University Art Gallery - Yale Universiteit Kunsgalery)

In 1779 Charles Willson Peale painted an official portrait of General George Washington (1732–1799, ll.d. 1781) to commemorate the victories of the Continental army at Trenton and Princeton, New Jersey. In response to the great popularity of the portrait, Peale produced a number of replicas, of which this is an example. Peale shows the general under a soaring American flag with the Hessian banners captured at Trenton clustered around his feet. In the background, American soldiers lead British prisoners off the field. In the original portrait and its immediate followers, Washington wears a blue ribbon across his breast, the insignia of the commander-in-chief since 1775. On June 18, 1780, however, Washington changed the military dress code, eliminating the blue sash and replacing it with three silver stars on the epaulettes. Peale clearly had started the present portrait before this date, as a long blue sash, painted out by the artist at a later date, today shows through. This pentimento, which records a specific moment in the history of American military dress, may be unique among the replicas of the portrait.

Die materiaal keuses

Ons bied 'n reeks verskillende materiale en groottes vir elke produk. Ons laat jou toe om tussen die volgende variante te kies:

• Akrielglasdruk: A glossy print on acrylic glass, often referred to as a print on plexiglass, will convert an original artwork into great home décor. Your favorite artwork will be made with the help of state-of-the-art UV direct print machines. The major upside of an acrylic glass fine art copy is that contrasts plus small painting details become visible with the help of the very subtle tonal gradation in the picture.
• Seildruk: The UV printed canvas material mounted on a wooden frame. What is more, printed canvas generates a cosy, pleasing impression. Canvas Prints have the advantage of being relatively low in weight, which means that it is easy and straightforward to hang up the Canvas print without the use of extra wall-mounts. Canvas prints are suited for all kinds of walls.
• Plakkaat (doek materiaal): A poster print is a printed flat canvas with a granular finish on the surface. It is perfectly designed for placing the art print with a personal frame. Please note, that depending on the size of the poster we add a white margin of something between 2-6 cm around the artwork, which facilitates the framing.
• Aluminium dibond druk: These are metal prints on aluminium dibond material with a true depth - for a modern impression and non-reflective surface structure. For the Direct Print On Aluminum Dibond, we print your artpiece on the surface of the white-primed aluminum.

Wettige vrywaring: We do whatever we can in order to depict our products as closely as possible and to illustrate them visually in our shop. At the same time, the pigments of the print products, as well as the imprint may diverge somehwat from the image on your device's screen. Depending on the settings of your screen and the quality of the surface, not all color pigments are printed 100% realistically. Because all our art prints are processed and printed manually, there may also be slight differences in the size and exact position of the motif.
