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

Hermann Stenner honed his skills by reinterpreting old paintings, and this Saint Sebastian shows him repainting the old vision of this gay coded saint: bare torso, thick tree, hip cloth in vermillion slung low. The saint standing in a slim column between a tall ochre trunk and a broad emerald field, one arm climbing past the top edge. Arm in lampblack, heavy as a line of wet ink.

The head bows and tilts beneath short hair dabbed on in thick strokes. A cloth wraps his hips and runs down to the bottom edge, strong as a signal flag against an indigo block deep as a pool of ink. Ivory, rose and olive sit thick on the torso, troweled on like wall plaster, with umber smears down the belly.

Having studied composition under Adolf Hölzel in Stuttgart, Stenner packs the figure into one tall slot, with the trunk on one side and emerald and indigo on the other. Left of the trunk, a cobalt panel holds two thin bare twigs, the paint scrubbed on so dry that it breaks into fine streaks, like grain in weathered wood. Cream and peach lie heavy on the torso in ridged strokes, like furrows in a plowed field.

A studio wall gives this picture room for a long look, and the route is built in: down the ochre trunk, across the vermilion cloth, up the lemon forearm. Across a kitchen table, the hip cloth glows warm as a banked ember, and the loose hand gives a passing glance somewhere to land.

Origin Story

Hermann Stenner (1891–1914) was a German Expressionist painter whose colour burned brightly until his death at twenty-three. Born in Bielefeld to a decorative painter, he studied at the Academy of Fine Arts, Munich, then in Stuttgart under Christian Landenberger and Adolf Hölzel, whose scientific approach to composition unlocked his radiant, fractured palette.

A brief stay in Paris and an invitation to Dresden’s first Expressionist exhibition preceded his Werkbund Exhibition murals, painted alongside Oskar Schlemmer and Willi Baumeister. Works such as Dame mit Masken and Grüne Frau mit gelbem Hut set masked, hatted women against saturated colour. Killed near Iłów in 1914, he left 280 paintings and over 1,500 drawings; Bielefeld’s Hermann-Stenner-Haus now honours his legacy.
