Trojan Weave, Kuppenheimer (1927) - J.C. Leyendecker Art Print

Fine Art Prints

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

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

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

Troy fell to a gift. In 1927 Kuppenheimer offered its own, a bolt of Trojan Weaves wool rolled beside a soldier's shin, and J.C. Leyendecker painted the sentry who guards it. Tight coils of spring sack suit cloth waiting to become armor for Jazz Age commuters.

Bone white cloth flares into a scalloped kilt edged in jet. Checkered pteruges swing from his waist, black squares knocking against pale ones in a rhythm borrowed from Deco tile. Silver greaves shine at the knee. A baldric slants to a sheathed sword.

His skin glows with the peach polish that made Leyendecker the Roaring Twenties' favorite painter of men. Behind him a round shield swells in dented pewter. Terracotta drapery wraps his forearm, and the spear rises straight through the lettering to stitch headline to hand.

Few magazine illustrations flirted so openly with classical revival. The caption boasts of a stalwart wonder-woolen built to rebuff the ravages of wear. His stance agrees.

As a retro fashion poster or statement wall art, this Kuppenheimer print keeps watch over any room. This vintage menswear advertisement art print holding Leyendecker's cool ideal of masculine beauty, sold to a nation buying confidence by the yard.
