What the painter is doing here
Everything is arranged to lead the eye along a diagonal that never reaches the corner.
Foreground, middle ground, distance: three clear planes, each with its own handling.
Undated, and catalogued simply as a work by Ludwig Deutsch.

What a print loses
Landscape is the first thing printing ruins. The press gives you the same green at fifty metres as at five, and the whole point of the picture was that they are not the same green. A painter rebuilds that difference pass by pass, and the depth returns.
We quote per commission rather than from a catalogue, because size, surface and framing move the number more than anything else. Message us on WhatsApp with your wall in mind and we will price it properly. No resellers, no drop-shipper. The painter's studio handles your commission from first message to final crate.
Sizing it
You are choosing the canvas, not picking from stock. These are the sizes that come up most often:
| Size (inches) | Size (cm) | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| 30 × 24 in | 76 × 61 cm | Dining room, bedroom feature wall |
| 24 × 20 in | 60 × 50 cm | Study, home office, above a desk |
| 20 × 16 in | 50 × 40 cm | Bedroom, hallway, above a console |
| 16 × 12 in | 40 × 30 cm | A shelf, a small wall, a gallery group |
Custom sizes are welcome — if your wall needs something between these, or larger, say so and we will quote it. Framing and shipping are quoted separately. Duties and import taxes are the buyer's responsibility (DAP).
Give us your size and framing preference and you will have a quote shortly.

This one reads well in a dining room, where the horizontals echo the table. Nothing gets cropped to suit a standard canvas. We build to the original's dimensions and scale from there.
Questions worth asking
Does it come with a certificate of authenticity?
No, and we would be wary of anyone who issues one for a public-domain reproduction. What you receive is a hand-painted canvas and photographs of it before it ships.
Can I get this in a size that is not listed?
Yes — the listed sizes are the common requests, not a limit. Very wide or unusually tall proportions are routine for us.
Is there a rush option?
It depends on the canvas and what else is in the studio. Ask on WhatsApp with your size and we will tell you straight what is possible.
