{"product_id":"winslow-homer-croquet-scene-print","title":"Croquet Scene by Winslow Homer","description":"\u003cp\u003eLadies and a gentleman at croquet on a sunny lawn: Winslow Homer’s Croquet Scene, on stretched canvas, framed, or on paper.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis lawn is bright with summer sun, red and white dresses and deep green trees, and a flat copy dulls it. Our Winslow Homer croquet scene print was graded against the Art Institute of Chicago’s own photograph, so the dresses stay bright and the light stays warm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"story\"\u003eNew England, 1866\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWinslow Homer had spent the Civil War drawing soldiers for Harper’s Weekly. Afterwards he turned to oil painting, and to people outdoors in the summer sun.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"story\"\u003eA new game\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCroquet had only just arrived in America from Britain, and it was the fashionable game of the moment. A gentleman crouches to place the ball of a lady in red, about to send another ball flying, while a woman in front shades her eyes from the sun.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"story\"\u003eA breezy afternoon\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is one of five croquet pictures he painted, all bold patterns, strong outlines and brilliant light. It belongs to the Art Institute of Chicago.\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 arrives ready to hang. Framed sizes are measured on the outside of the frame.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFine art print.\u003c\/strong\u003e Printed on 310gsm fine art matte paper, for framing your own way. It travels rolled and protected. From 18x24 inch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSizes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e18x12 inch, 28x18 inch, 40x24 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 long shape and bright colours suit a living room, a garden room or a hallway. They look lovely with white, sage and natural wood, and a white or natural frame keeps it sunny.\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. We are unable to deliver to PO boxes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat if it arrives damaged?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSend us a photograph and we will remake it and send it again. 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.
