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 × 16 in print therefore arrives as 24 × 18.3 in. Both numbers are shown in Your Selection above and change with the slider.

Yes. The slider covers every size up to 41.3 × 30.5 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 Sargent'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 75 × 52.4 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 The Clark Art Institute, Williamstown, USA. Full size guide.

About the Painting

Sargent's "Street in Venice" - it's a painting that lingers in the mind's eye. A fleeting moment, frozen in time, yet crackling with unspoken possibilities.

Two figures dominate the narrow passageway. A man, his face obscured, leans towards a woman wrapped in black. Her profile is just visible, a hint of hesitation in her stance. Sargent's genius lies in this ambiguity. We're left to ponder - is this a chance encounter or a clandestine meeting?

The composition is masterfully constructed. Those high walls funnel our gaze, creating a sense of intimacy bordering on claustrophobia. Yet there's a promise of release - that patch of sunlight at the alley's end, hinting at Venice's broader vistas.

Sargent's palette is restrained, yet deeply evocative. Muted greys and browns dominate, capturing the weathered textures of Venetian stone. But look at that woman's skirt - a burst of coral that anchors the entire painting. It's a deft touch, drawing the eye without overwhelming the scene.

The brushwork deserves close attention. In places, it's loose and impressionistic. Elsewhere, Sargent applies paint with surgical precision. This interplay creates a sense of immediacy - we feel as though we've stumbled upon this scene ourselves.

What truly elevates this work is its narrative potential. Sargent provides just enough detail to set our imaginations whirring, yet holds back crucial information. It's this tension between the seen and unseen that gives "Street in Venice" its enduring allure.
