Choose a size

Size

Will it fit? Check these sizes against your wall

Measure the wall between whatever bounds it — window trim, a doorway, the corner. Sizes are judged hung (frame included) with 6 in of breathing room, two-thirds the width of the furniture under them, and the center at eye level (57–60 in). Guidance, not a guarantee: the true-size template is the final check.

  • Made to order just for you: printed, finished and packed within 3–5 business days. Your order reaches the printer within minutes and printing can start soon after; once it starts, the order can't be canceled or changed.
  • Free replacement if it arrives damaged, defective or not what you ordered — tell us within 7 days of delivery, with photos. Because each piece is made for you, there are no returns for a change of mind. Full policy
  • No hanging hardware is included. Stretched and framed canvases hang flat on two nails or screws, set level: the wooden bar on the back rests on them, and the free wall template marks the spot. Rolled canvas goes to a framer first.
  • Printed from an archive scan of the original print (before 1891, published 1895). Its paper tone, small spots and marks of age are part of the picture, just as on the original sheet, and colors can look slightly different on your screen.

Materials & finish

Printed on 400 gsm canvas with pigment inks. Stretched canvas and float frame canvas sit on a 1.5 in (38 mm) wooden stretcher; the classic frame holds the canvas on a slimmer 0.75 in (19 mm) stretcher. Rolled canvas ships in a sturdy tube.

The float frame stands 2.1 in (53 mm) off the wall, with a 0.5 in (12 mm) face and a 0.2 in (5 mm) gap around the canvas. The classic frame stands 0.9 in (22 mm) off the wall with a 0.8 in (20 mm) face.

Hanging hardware is not included. Two picture hooks (or screws) rated for the weight, set level, are all it needs; the free true-size wall template marks the spot.

The story of this print

A frosty field of marsh grass runs across the bottom of the picture. On the left a rough wooden fence and gate stand among the reeds, a few bare saplings rise from the mist, and two horses graze in the gray distance on the right. The winter sun is a pale disc low in the sky.

Peter Henry Emerson (1856–1936) photographed the Norfolk marshes of eastern England for more than a decade. Marsh Leaves, published in 1895, was his last book, and the museum describes its style as so loose and graphic that it verges on abstraction. Here the mist does most of the drawing.

The long 2:1 shape suits the wall above a sofa, a bed or a sideboard.

What we did to this scan

  1. Cropped by hand to the edge of the printed sheet.
  2. Balanced the levels and took out the scanner’s color cast, keeping 50% of the paper’s age tone.
  3. Toned to neutral black and white, taking out the brown of the old paper or albumen print.
  4. Cleaned dust and specks picked up by the scanner.
  5. A light sharpen, so fine lines and lettering hold at large sizes.

About this particular sheet. Made from the Cleveland Museum of Art's scan of the photogravure. Cropped evenly to a long 2:1 canvas. The print's warm tone was taken out, so it prints as a neutral black and white.

Every print is credited to its archive here and in your order confirmation. Paper tone and small imperfections of the original are kept on purpose; nothing is redrawn. How we restore.

Questions

What does it show?
Frosted marsh grass in the foreground, a broken wooden fence on the left, two horses grazing in the mist on the right and a pale winter sun low in a white sky.
Is this an original?
No. It is a new print made from the Cleveland Museum of Art's photograph of the photogravure in its collection. We never sell originals or antiques.
Where does the image come from?
From the Cleveland Museum of Art, which releases its photograph of this work under Creative Commons Zero (CC0) as part of its Open Access program. It was published in 1895, in his book Marsh Leaves; Emerson died in 1936, so the work is in the public domain. Published before 1931, it is also in the public domain in the United States. The museum record (accession 2025.17) is linked on this page.
How is it made?
It is printed to order for you, in the finish you choose: a float frame canvas, a classic frame canvas, a stretched canvas, a rolled canvas or an acrylic panel. Both frames come in Black or Antique Gold. The size and finish picker shows which sizes each finish is made in.
Colors vary a little between screens and canvas. The previews are drawn, not photographed, and are a close match to the printed piece.
