Wisteria | horizontal | Claude Monet

Artwork Inspiration

Wisteria (1917–20) is one of only seven works (including one diptych) that Monet created to hang above a frieze above his famous cycle of large water lily paintings, which he offered to the French nation the day after the Armistice in 1918 as a memorial to the war. Claude Monet, Wisteria (1917-20). 

The design @galerie_de_claire split Monet's Wisteria painting into two parts because it was simply too large for an average household poster frame. This way more can appreciate Monet's beautiful use of violet. Monet's violet provided a distinctive new color for modern art. He began to believe that purple was able to exploit the dimensionality of the shadow better than black, as he said: "I finally discovered the true color of the atmosphere. It is violet".

Shipped in sturdy packaging protecting the poster. 

Poster with frame: 
The frames come pre-packed with corners and film and then packed in a box with strong edges to protect the frames. I-beams are used in addition, to give the package additional sturdiness and for multi-item orders (max 3 frames in one package).

Plexiglass used in frames may also carry a protective film but this is often applied to both the front and the back of the glass. This often has a blue hue to it. These protective films can be mistaken for scratches, bubbles, or a colored cast to a print/glass.
