Fine Art Prints

Wall Art Info

Forget cheap reproductions and printable posters. Only the best will do.

Velvety matte fine art paper (warm white, archival-grade, 200gsm) with bold, vibrant, non-toxic pigment inks. High-definition print lab techniques give you sharper details, deeper saturation and true-to-life tones. While the matte surface keeps glare down and archival-grade materials mean the colors you fall for stay vivid for decades.

Framed Fine Art Prints

Wall Art Info

Your print arrives framed and ready to hang, so it goes straight from the box to your wall.

Chevron cut wooden frames make a timeless statement in three distinctive colors: black, white and natural. Each frame is made of sustainably sourced FSC® certified knotless pine. And your artwork is protected behind ultra-clear perspex glaze that’s lighter than glass and shatter-resistant.

Float Framed Canvas Prints

Wall Art Info

Luscious artist-grade cotton canvas, hand-stretched and finely textured, gives every detail depth and precision, catching light and color with striking clarity. While a precisely measured floating frame leaves a slim gap around the canvas, so it seems to hover with a sleek, gallery-worthy effect. Finished with your choice of frame color — black, white or natural — made from sustainably sourced FSC® certified knotless pine.

Giclée Printing

Wall Art Info

Forget 4 color CMYK. Giclée layers up to 12 — alive with deeper shadows, richer highlights and multidimensional contrasts. Pro-lab printing process helps art stay bold & breathtaking for up to 100 years. And the neo-pigment, water-based inks are 100% non-hazardous and toxin-free.

About the Artwork

Gerolamo Giovenone, an Italian Renaissance painter, drew Saint Sebastian on toned fawn paper, shading the body in pewter wash and lifting the lights in pale strokes. Letting you trace each stroke, from the lit chest to the bare foot. His raised forearm leans on a crooked bough, rough as a hewn beam, and the hand above it opens, fingers fanned like the prongs of the forked limb that juts out at the left. A far town behind him in thin pale touches of towers and roofs, beyond a lake flat as a pane of glass.

Many viewers find a homoerotic charge in Sebastian, and this sheet shows what they point to: frontal torso, smooth chest lit in pale strokes, bare legs and arm hanging down and out to the right, his hand loose with fingers curled, slack as a dropped rein. Pewter wash gathers under the ribs and pale strokes lift the chest forward, rounded and smooth as a boxwood carving warmed in the hand. A broad pale band of cloth wraps his hips, bright as a bolt of linen left in the sun to bleach.

His face rises toward the upper right, throat stretched long above the collarbones. Most pictures of Sebastian include arrows, and this sheet draws none, only bough, bare skin and the band of cloth. Hung in an attic where low light slants across it, the pale strokes on his chest and hip cloth are the first marks the light finds, and the upturned face then pulls your eye up toward the roof. On a library wall, the fawn ground is warm as the page of an old book, and the loose hand and flat lake give a reader's eyes a slow place to rest.

Origin Story

Gerolamo Giovenone (1486/87–1555), also spelled Girolamo, was an Italian Renaissance painter born in Vercelli, Piedmont, Italy, into a family of master carpenters and artists. After training in Turin and working in Milan, he returned to Vercelli by 1515. His early panels sit close to Defendente Ferrari’s devotional manner.

Gaudenzio Ferrari’s influence shaped his later altarpieces, including the Madonna Lactans of the Trittico Raspa (1516) in Trino, the Buronzo Altarpiece, and a signed 1527 Madonna and Child with kneeling donors. A Virgin and Child with Saints is held by the National Gallery, London, while the Museo Borgogna in Vercelli holds works he painted with Bernardino Lanino. Giovenone’s quiet, devout Madonnas anchor Vercelli’s sixteenth-century Renaissance painting.
