"An Old Man and His Grandson" will be custom-printed for your order using the latest giclée printing technology. This technique ensures that the Canvas Print captures an exceptional level of detail, showcasing vibrant and vivid colors with remarkable clarity.

Our use of the finest quality, fine-textured canvas lends art reproductions a painting-like appearance. Combined with a satin-gloss coating, it delivers exceptional print outcomes, showcasing vivid colors, intricate details, deep blacks, and impeccable contrasts. The canvas structure is also highly compatible with canvas stretching frames, further enhancing its versatility.

To ensure proper stretching of the artwork on the stretcher-bar, we add additional blank borders around the printed area on all sides.

Our printing process utilizes cutting-edge technology and employs the Giclée printmaking method, ensuring exceptional quality. The colors undergo independent verification, guaranteeing a lifespan of over 100 years.

Please note that there are postal restrictions limiting the size of framed prints to a maximum of 28 inches along the longest side of the painting. If you desire a larger art print, we recommend utilizing the services of your local framing studio.
*It is important to mention that the framing option is unavailable for certain paintings, such as those with oval or round shapes.

If you select a frameless art print of "An Old Man and His Grandson" by Ghirlandaio, it will be prepared for shipment within 48 hours. However, if you prefer a framed artwork, the printing and framing process will typically require approximately 7-8 days before it is ready to be shipped.

We provide complimentary delivery for up to two unframed (rolled-up) art prints in a single order. Our standard delivery is free and typically takes 10-14 working days to arrive.

For faster shipping, we also offer express DHL shipping, which usually takes 2-4 working days. The cost of express shipping is determined by the weight and volume of the shipment, as well as the delivery destination.

Once you have added the paintings to your shopping cart, you can use the "Shipping estimates" tool to obtain information about available transport services and their respective prices.

All unframed art prints are delivered rolled up in secure postal tubes, ensuring their protection during transportation. Framed art prints, on the other hand, are shipped in cardboard packaging with additional corner protectors for added safety.

Nothing in the picture detracts from the tenderness of the child nestled in the arms of what is probably his grandfather. He is ill with rhinophyma, which the painter Domenico Ghirlandaio (1449-1494) renders with incredible accuracy. It is striking how the old man, deformed by the disease, contemplates with pity the beauty and innocence of his grandson, the child with the blond curls. In a space that opens to the outside world through an unreal landscape, old age and youth meet in a silent dialogue where only the intensity of the gaze matters.

The grandfather is perhaps the then director of the Medici bank, Francesco Sasetti (1420-1490). His name is associated with the decoration of the funeral chapel of the church of Santa Trinita in Florence. He belonged to the leading class of bankers, merchants and bourgeois who made Florence one of the most flourishing European cities in the 15th century.

The Louvre acquired the portrait in 1880. At the time, it was damaged - mysterious scratches were visible on the old man's forehead, left eye and nose. The painting was restored in 1995: the nicks were merged with the skin tone so as not to disturb the eye.
