What arrives
A 60 × 90 cm giclée reproduction of The Artist's Garden at Giverny, printed with archival pigment inks on 380 gsm cotton canvas. The rolled version ships in a rigid tube; the framed version arrives stretched on a 3.5 cm frame, set in a solid-wood float frame, with hanging hardware fitted.
Both are reproductions. Neither is an original, a limited edition, or signed. If a listing anywhere describes a Monet canvas print as an investment, that listing is lying to you.
Hanging it properly
| Room | Why it works | Watch out for |
|---|---|---|
| Living room | Neutral walls let the palette carry the room | Direct sun on one side will fade the warm tones first |
| Bedroom | Low-contrast works read well in dim light | Avoid hanging above a radiator |
| Hallway | A single large work anchors a narrow space | Check the hanging height — 145 cm to centre is a good default |
| Kitchen | Only if well ventilated | Grease and steam will settle on unglazed canvas |
| Bathroom | Not recommended | Sustained humidity warps the stretcher |
Keeping it in good condition
Keep it out of direct sunlight. Pigment inks are rated for decades under glass or in normal indoor light, but ultraviolet is what ends prints early, and a south-facing wall with no blind will do visible damage within a few years.
Dust with a dry, soft brush or a microfibre cloth. Never use a wet cloth on unglazed canvas, and never spray cleaner onto the surface — it wicks into the weave and leaves a tide mark.
If it arrives damaged
Photograph the tube or box before opening it if there is visible crush damage, then photograph the print. Send both to us within 14 days and we replace it. Canvas prints travel well, but a tube that has been compressed in transit will leave creases that do not hang out.
Sizing it for a real wall
A 60 × 90 cm print needs about 60 cm of clear wall on each side to breathe, and it wants to hang so that its centre sits at roughly eye level — 145 cm from the floor is the usual figure. Above a sofa, the bottom edge should clear the back by 15–25 cm, not sit right on it.
If the wall is wider than 3 m, one 60 × 90 cm work will look lost. Either pair it with a second print from the same series, hung 8–10 cm apart, or go up a size. A single small picture on a large empty wall is the most common hanging mistake there is.
