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 17.6 × 21.7 in print therefore arrives as 20 × 24 in. Both numbers are shown in Your Selection above and change with the slider.

Yes. The slider covers every size up to 38.5 × 47.2 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 93.3 × 111.5 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 National Gallery of Art, Washington, USA. Full size guide.

About the Painting

The fresh tones that the artist loves so much become much brighter. This cheerful, radiant, youthful beauty dates from the year in which the group of Impressionist painters was formed. Manet worked it in the garden adjacent to his dwelling, capturing a single moment - the moment when the girl caught by the fence gazed into the spreading white smoke of the passing train. This smoke is simply the epitome of the fleetingness of the minute, the suddenness and transience of feelings. He contrasts it with the immobility of the young woman, the girl, the dog that came out, and, above all, with the steady and eternally black fence. From this juxtaposition is born the painting's incomparable charm. And the contradiction is emphasized by certain details, such as the contrast in the colours of the two dresses and in the friezes of the two women. The young woman's hair is scattered from under her hat, while the naked girl has gathered it into a bun.
