Print/Image Size

Frame

You can add a frame in Customize Your Print below: open the Frame tab and choose a profile. Framing is available while the long side of the print is no more than 28", a limit set by the couriers. If your size is larger, move the slider down and the frames become available.

We stretch the canvas on stretcher bars, build the frame to your size and attach a hanger, so the print arrives ready to hang. Canvas is framed without glass, like a painting, so its texture stays visible. Framed prints are made in 7 to 8 workdays. Once a frame is chosen, you can also add a mat.

Have a frame of your own? Choose Stretched: the canvas comes on stretcher bars only, with a cord for hanging.

Every frame is made to measure, so framed prints are not part of our 30-day returns. If one arrives damaged, we replace it. More about framing.

Mat

A mat is the border between the print and the frame. On canvas it is a liner: a narrow profile of solid wood or polystyrene that sits inside the frame, adds depth and gives the image a quiet margin. It is optional.

You can add one in Customize Your Print below, in the Mat tab. The tab appears once you have chosen a frame, because a mat always sits inside one. A mat makes the framed piece larger by twice its width in each direction: each option shows its width, and the Framed Size in Your Selection above updates as you choose. More about mats.

Rolled

Your print is shipped rolled in a protective tube, unstretched and unframed. Around the image we leave 1.2 in of blank canvas on every side, so any local framer can stretch it on stretcher bars and frame it to your taste.

Prefer it ready to hang? Choose a frame, or Stretched for stretcher bars without a frame, in Customize Your Print below.

Questions about this Print

The size you set is the printed image, the part you see once the canvas is stretched. Beyond that size we add 1.2 in of blank canvas on every side, at no extra cost, so the stretcher bars have something to grip. A 21.7 × 14.1 in print therefore arrives as 24 × 16.5 in. Both numbers are shown in Your Selection above and change with the slider.

Yes. The slider covers every size up to 35.4 × 23.1 in, always in the proportions of the original. If you need something larger, or a size that has to fit a frame you already own, write to us with the title and the dimensions and we will tell you what is possible. Every print is made to order, so there is usually a way.

Because the original is an oil painting on canvas. We match the print medium to the original: oil paintings go on canvas, works on paper go on fine art paper. Our canvas is natural cotton, 400 g/m² Canvas, acid-free and pH neutral, and its woven texture gives the most natural impression of Bouguereau's original oil painting. The finish is satin/gloss, which keeps the depth of the dark tones the way varnish does on a painting in a museum; a matte canvas looks dull and pale next to it. More about our print media.

Start with the original, which measures 150 × 106.7 cm. A print at or near that size reads the way the artist judged it. Printing smaller is easy; enlarging a small original changes its character. For the wall, above a sofa or a sideboard aim for two thirds to three quarters of the furniture width, and hang the center at eye level. Cut paper to size and tape it to the wall before you order. The original hangs in Minneapolis Institute of Arts, USA. Full size guide.

30-day returns on unframed prints. Shipping, framing, care and returns are covered in our Help & FAQ.

It is lovely, although it smells like paint, but I get that. If it was up to me, "shipped rolled" posters would all be shipped image side out, as it makes it more convenient for stretching and framing, but that's not what we do, and I get that as well... Anecdotally, but sincerely, I would cheerfully pay two to three times as much for a reproduction of this greatest of Bougeureau's works if I could obtain it in the 42 x 59 inch size of the original canvas, but since the only reproduction I had to hand previously was 2 1/2 x 3 3/4 inches, I am greatly assuged and abated in my hunger to bask in the unrivalled beauty of "Le Boheme" (I'm not a Francophone, but I play one on TV!)... As I related when I ordered this print, for most of my adult life, this exceedingly beautiful painting was part of the permanent collection of the Minneapolis Institute of Arts, and I used to visit it at least every other month, but at some point a fly by night "Interim Director" at the MIA clandestinely "deaccessioned" the work (and probably illegally, as it was a bequest of the Christina N. and Susan J. Turnblad Fund) in order to, ostensibly, finance the purchase of a (circa teens-twenties) painting of a graying flapper brandishing a badminton racket, and the Bougereau vanished into some oligarch or Sheik's private collection, which is literally a crime against humanity... I have some connectivity in the art world (my ex-wife and her current husband and my daughter were all working for the MIA about the time of this (essentially!) "art heist," and I've seriously nosed around more than a bit, and if ANYONE knows the current whereabouts of this painting, they aren't saying! In addition to inquiry through and around the MIA, I querried The Gamel-Lack Institute, and they told me in no uncertain terms, "The whereabouts of this painting is unknown"... If you know more, or otherwise, please let me know, I'm all ears. I believe it will surface again some day, but in all likelihood I will have, as the yogis say, "kicked the frame" long before then (although I'd love to be wrong about this!)... Holiday Best and a Most Resplendant New Year to all at TopArtPrint (Bulgaria, right?)... -- Namaste Art Mavens! Genn C.B. Jones (Minneapolis)

Reply from TopArtPrint

Genn, thank you for this wonderfully detailed review and for sharing your personal connection to Bouguereau's "La Bohémienne." Your passion for the painting comes through brilliantly.
A few quick notes:
Paint smell: Completely normal with fresh giclée prints—it'll fade within a few days in open air.
Rolled image-side-in: We do this to protect the printed surface during shipping. Image-side-out risks scratches and scuffs, especially over long distances. We know it adds a step when stretching, but it keeps the print pristine.
Original size (42 x 59"): We'd love to offer that scale, but sourcing high-resolution files at museum dimensions isn't always feasible. If we ever secure one for this piece, you'll be the first to know.
The painting's whereabouts: We're as frustrated as you are. The deaccessioning story is heartbreaking, and unfortunately we have no insider knowledge. If it ever resurfaces publicly, we hope it's soon—and that you're around to see it.
Holiday best to you in Minneapolis, and may 2026 bring some answers about "La Bohémienne."
Namaste :)
