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 × 17.7 in print therefore arrives as 24 × 20.1 in. Both numbers are shown in Your Selection above and change with the slider.

Yes. The slider covers every size up to 41.3 × 33.8 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 Manet'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 62 × 52 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 Musée d'Orsay, Paris, France. Full size guide.

About the Painting

This particular artwork by Manet deviates from his usual style and bears a striking resemblance to Renoir's "Nude in the Sunlight" from 1876, although the lighting on the figure in Manet's painting is even and she is not depicted outdoors.

The color palette employed here is characteristic of Impressionism, distinct from the white, black, and gray tones often found in much of Manet's other works. The woman is portrayed in a state of undress, with a hint of a dress cascading from her arms and a hat adorning her head. The combination of her pink skin tone and the flat green background harmonize beautifully, radiating with luminosity. This effect is partly achieved by the varying thickness of the green paint, allowing the underlying color of the canvas to contribute to the illumination of the painting. The unpainted top left corner of the canvas plays a role in enhancing this effect, reflecting the golden hues of the hat's straw. The red flowers provide a vibrant contrast against the green backdrop.

Within the Impressionist circles, leaving certain areas of the canvas unpainted was not an uncommon practice. Canvases were available in a range of pale to mid-tones, and starting from the 1870s, artists embraced a brighter color palette and sought to capture natural light. Consequently, it became logical to utilize the paler, primed canvases, leveraging the underlying ground to enhance the overall interplay of color and light in the artwork.
