Edition
Max. 20 signed prints plus artist proofs. As part of an edition of max. 20 pieces across all sizes this artwork is signed by the artist either on the front side under the print (framed artwork) or on the rear side (unframed artwork).
A signed certificate of authenticity is provided upon purchase. Both certificate and print receive a micro-embossed seal with a traceable unique identification number to certify authenticity.
Notes
Artwork can be reframed and re-matted. The artwork is mounted without the use of adhesives so it can be reframed and re-matted at a later time. All my unframed artwork fits in standard 3:2 frames.
Framing
Print Only – Ideal for Self-Framing
This option includes no framing or mount board. This option is ideal for someone who would like to use an individual frame and mount board of their own choice or who would like to replace an existing image in one of their own frames.
For this option (no framing) there are multiple printing papers available. If you favour a very simplistic style, you may want to pin this print on your wall without any frame or mount board.
All my prints are printed on high quality inkjet archival printing paper and will maintain their colours for many years. Prints without frame come shipped in either a flat document box for small and medium print sizes or a hard protective tube for larger sizes.
Please keep in mind that – although not absolutely necessary – I recommend laminating prints onto a mount board such as foam core or similar, to prevent the paper from curling due to air humidity.
Framed Print – Classic Wood Frame (Dark)
Wooden frames are all-time classics both dark and undyed. My frames are of superb quality and are particularly chosen for each artwork I create. Even though I offer the dark version by default, different colours, shapes or materials are available on request.
Also the size of the mount (the white space between the artwork and the inner edge of the frame can be customised. By default, the size of the mat board lies somewhere between 50 and 80mm each side, depending on the overall size of the artwork.
Sizes
Size availability varies between different artworks. Find the available sizes of each artwork in the ‘Size’ dropdown field on its individual page.
- Sizes given for framed prints refer to the printed image that is visible in the mat board opening window. Add white space between print and mat board as well as the width of the mat board to the image/print size and you have the overall size of the artwork.
- Given sizes for Alu-Dibond prints refer to the overall external dimensions of the Alu-Dibond board.
- The given sizes for ‘Matted Prints’ refer to the printed image that is visible in the mat board opening window. You have to add the width of the mat board and the white space between mat board opening and printed image to know the overall dimensions of the art work. The resulting sizes are what you need for when you buy your own frame, it is the same size as the glass/perspex sheet that protects the artwork within the frame.
Definition of terms used:
-
- White space:
Usually 10mm left, right and top and 10mm at the bottom (30mm for framed prints due to the signature space) around the printed area.
- Mat board:
Usually around 60mm each side between white space and frame molding.
- Rebate:
5mm each side, this is the overlap of frame molding and mat board.

Delivery
Some of the prints you can buy on my website I have in stock. Some prints will be printed on demand for you only when you purchase them. This helps me to keep costs for stock low and makes it easier to respond to specific customer requests.
Alu-Dibond prints should—under normal circumstances—take no longer than 8 to 10 days to arrive at your front door. However, sometimes things might take a little longer when the print lab is busier than usual or the courier service decides that he works too fast.
Print Only products can usually be shipped on the day of your order or the day after.
Matted Prints can be in stock or have to be printed and matted. Mat boards are often cut to measure each time a print is purchased. Depending on the size, cutting can be done by myself or it has to be done by a framing studio. Waiting times can therefore be involved because a third-party supplier is involved. However, matted prints are usually shipped within a few days.
Framed Prints take a bit longer until they arrive at your door. Most frames are made to order after you purchased a print in my online store and the print is then matted and framed into this frame. This manufacturing, printing and matting process can add significantly to the overall delivery time. However, Prints are usually shipped within a week from the date of purchase.
Please allow a little extra time for both matted and framed prints.
