Giclée Print Quality 400 g/m² Canvas (Satin Gloss) + 1.2 in Borders for Stretching 100+ Year Colour Guarantee Free WorldWide Shipping!

Most people search for “canvas print” or “wall art” - but what they’re really looking for is a giclée print: a museum-grade reproduction of the original masterpiece, printed with archival pigment inks on fine art canvas.

Giclée (pronounced 'zhee-clay') is a French term meaning 'to spray,' referring to how ink is precisely sprayed onto canvas or paper, creating incredibly detailed fine art prints. It’s the gold standard in museum-quality printing, loved by artists, galleries, and museums worldwide.

Your artwork will be printed on premium canvas using vibrant archival inks, faithfully capturing every brushstroke and subtle nuance of André Derain's original. To ensure lasting beauty, each print is finished with a protective UV varnish. Far superior to ordinary posters, your canvas print will look and feel like a real painting, retaining its vivid colors and pristine details for more than 100 years.

About Giclée Fine Art Printing

Here's a simple trick: use painter’s tape to mark the print size directly on your wall, and step back to see how it feels. Generally, larger sizes around 36 in wide work beautifully in living rooms or open spaces. Medium sizes around 24 in fit nicely in bedrooms, hallways, or offices. Hanging it above a sofa? Choose a print that's roughly two-thirds the width of your couch. Still unsure? Start with our popular 17.6 × 21.7 in size—it fits comfortably in most spaces!

For a more artistic approach: choosing a size closer to the original artwork ensures you experience the artist’s intended visual impact and authenticity. Of course, since most of us don't live in spacious baroque palaces, your available space and personal taste should ultimately guide your decision.

In many cases, yes! If you need a specific size to fit a particular space or frame, feel free to reach out—we're happy to see what’s possible. Because each print is made to order, we can often accommodate custom dimensions as long as they respect the proportions of the original painting.Just send us an email at info@topartprint.com with the title of the artwork and the size you're looking for. We’ll get back to you quickly with options and pricing.

Good to know: when you choose the size of your artwork, the Print Size shown in the Your Selection box refers to the actual image area—that’s the part you’ll see once the canvas is stretched or framed.

The Total Size includes an additional 1.2 in white border on each side, added specifically for stretching.
So yes—this white border is added on top of your selected print size. You get the full artwork at the dimensions you picked, plus extra canvas to make stretching smooth and professional.

For example, if you select a 17.6 × 21.7 in print, the full canvas you receive will measure 19.9 × 24.0 in—giving your framer plenty of room to create a clean, gallery-quality stretch.

Both options are wonderful choices! Going unframed gives you maximum flexibility—you can take your print to a local framing shop for personalized options and expert advice tailored to your décor. This is especially great if you have specific design ideas or want to match existing frames in your home.

However, keep in mind that a print truly comes to life when properly framed. Art professionals often say: 'The frame contributes 30% of the artwork’s overall impact.' A well-chosen frame elevates and completes your print.

If you choose our framing option, your print will arrive professionally framed and ready to hang right out of the box. We focus exclusively on traditional framing methods, ensuring every artwork receives the respectful presentation it deserves—this is why we don't offer gallery wrap options.

Important shipping note: Due to courier restrictions, we can ship framed prints up to 28 in on the longest side. Larger prints will arrive safely rolled in a tube, ready for you to frame locally.

For more detailed information, please see our complete guide to fine art framing methods.

We've carefully selected this premium canvas because it brings out the absolute best in André Derain's work. Made from natural cotton with a 400 g/m² weight, it has just the right texture to capture every brushstroke and detail of the original painting.

What makes our canvas special? The satin-gloss finish. Think of how paintings look in museums with that beautiful varnish—that's exactly the effect we're going for. This glossy surface makes colors pop with incredible vibrancy while giving deep, rich blacks that matte canvases simply can't achieve. The result? Your print has that authentic 'real painting' look with extraordinary depth and life.

Plus, our canvas is acid-free and pH-neutral, so it'll stay beautiful for generations. We believe Bridge over the Riou deserves nothing less than this museum-quality treatment.

Every print is made just for you—no mass production here! Once you place your order, we begin creating your Bridge over the Riou print with care and precision.

About the Painting

Somewhere beneath all that saturated color, a bridge hides. It sits at the lower right, almost an afterthought – a curved archway in terracotta and shadow, easy to miss among the riot of foliage pressing in from every direction. This is André Derain's Bridge over the Riou, painted in 1906 and now housed at the Museum of Modern Art New York MOMMA, and it is a painting that refuses to behave like a landscape.

The scene describes a specific place in the south of France: a ravine with a riverbed running through it, a small cabin tucked down in the hollow, the rounded dome of a covered well, and houses visible beyond the trees on higher ground. You can identify all of this if you look patiently. But Derain has compressed the space so thoroughly – foreground bank, dry riverbed, far slope – that depth barely registers. Everything presses forward into a single decorated plane, as if the landscape had been folded flat and pinned to the canvas.

This flattening feels deliberate, even labored over. The composition is densely patterned, suggesting not a quick plein-air sketch but a slow process of reworking and reshaping. Each passage locks into the next like tiles in a mosaic. Tree trunks rendered in indian red and pink rise through masses of deep viridian, emerald, and cadmium orange. Some shapes carry dark outlines in unexpected blues or soft lavenders, giving them the look of stained glass rather than observed nature. One tree trunk at center leans at an improbable angle, its surface shifting from coral to cerulean as it climbs – a passage so frankly artificial it seems to glow from within.

By 1906, Derain was pulling away from something. The year before, he and the other Fauvists had scandalized Paris with their aggressive, liberated color. But that earlier work still carried an Impressionist loyalty to nature, to the passing moment of contemporary life, to what the eye actually saw. Now Derain wanted something more permanent. He sought to create images that would "belong to all time" as well as to his own period. The rapid, separated brushstrokes of 1905 have here been absorbed into broader, more architectural shapes. Color no longer describes light falling on leaves; it builds a structure.

And yet the emotional temperature stays extraordinarily high. Stand close and you can almost feel the dry heat of Provence rising off the painted ground. That intensity of hue – the screaming oranges against those cold, saturated greens – does relate to the blinding light of the south. But it belongs less to nature than to art. Derain is not recording what he sees. He is constructing what he feels.

Perhaps that is why the painting reminds me less of Monet than of Cézanne's late Provençal landscapes, where the real subject is not the mountain or the trees but the act of organizing sensation into form. Derain takes that ambition and pushes it further, heating the palette until it hums. Notice how the small yellow-green accents scattered through the foliage create a syncopated rhythm across the surface, pulling the eye sideways rather than backward into space. Nothing recedes quietly here.

What lingers is the tension between recognition and abstraction – the fact that you can name every element in the scene while simultaneously feeling that the painting has left description far behind. It is a landscape that remembers being a landscape, even as it becomes something else entirely.
