{"product_id":"gustav-klimt-expectation-print","title":"Expectation (Stoclet Frieze) by Gustav Klimt","description":"\u003cp\u003eA woman in a robe of triangles among golden spirals: Gustav Klimt’s Expectation, from the Stoclet Frieze, on canvas or paper.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis design shimmers with gold, silver and jewel colours on a pale ground, and a flat copy turns it dull. Our Klimt expectation print was graded against a full-resolution photograph of the original, so the golds stay warm and every triangle keeps its colour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"story\"\u003eBrussels, 1905–1911\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA Belgian banker, Adolphe Stoclet, and his wife Suzanne asked the Viennese architect Josef Hoffmann to build them a palace in Brussels, with no limit on the cost. Gustav Klimt was asked to decorate the dining room.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"story\"\u003eThe tree of life\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKlimt designed a frieze to run round three walls: great spiralling Trees of Life, and among the branches a standing woman, known as Expectation, and an embracing couple. In the house it was made in marble, gold tiles, enamel and semi-precious stones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"story\"\u003eThe full-size design\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is Klimt’s own full-size design for the woman, which the craftsmen copied. The palace has never been open to the public, so this is how most people see it. It belongs to the MAK in Vienna.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCanvas, framed or paper\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStretched canvas.\u003c\/strong\u003e Printed on cotton canvas and stretched taut over a frame. The edges are mirror-wrapped, so the picture continues around the sides and none of it is lost to the fold.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFramed canvas.\u003c\/strong\u003e The same canvas, set in a black, white, natural wood or dark wood frame 0.83 in deep. The frame gives the work a finished edge and a little more presence on the wall.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFramed print.\u003c\/strong\u003e Printed on fine art matte paper and framed in solid pine, behind shatterproof plexiglass, in black, white, natural wood or dark wood.

It travels rolled and protected. From 18x24 inch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSizes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e12x18 inch, 18x28 inch. Framed sizes are measured on the outside of the frame, so the visible painting is a little smaller.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eOn your wall\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIts tall, narrow shape suits a hallway, the wall beside a door or a pair with Fulfillment. The golds look rich with cream, black and deep green, and a gold or black frame suits it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eQuestions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs this the original painting?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. The original hangs in a museum. What you receive is a fine art reproduction, remastered from the original and printed for you, with every mark where the artist left it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWill the colour look flat?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is where most reproductions disappoint, and it is where we spend the most time. Each work is graded side by side with the original: faithful to the artist’s colours, with the depth and warmth brought back, so it moves you on the wall the way it was meant to. Canvas reads a touch softer than a backlit screen, and every screen shows colour a little differently.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWill the edges be cropped?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach size is a standard frame size, so we fit the painting by trimming a little from its edges. We never stretch or squash it, and we check every size by eye so no face, figure or signature is cut. On canvas the edges are mirror-wrapped, which keeps the whole picture on the front.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhich size is right for my wall?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAim for about two-thirds the width of the furniture beneath it. Over a sofa or a sideboard, one of the two largest sizes will hold the wall. The size guide lists every size in inches and centimetres, with the kind of wall each one suits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow long does it take?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYour piece is printed in 1–3 business days, then spends 5–12 business days in transit, tracked all the way. Delivery is free anywhere in the US.

There is nothing to return.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I return it?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, within 30 days of delivery.
