TITLE: REPRODUCTION of "Connemara (Ireland)" by Paul Henry © 2020-2022

ARTWORK BACKGROUND: The subject of this painting is a traditional Irish landscape, depicted in a more modern style (as of a century ago!). It is a rough reproduction of Paul Henry's Connemara, created between 1924 and 25. I omitted the turf stacks.

I was drawn to the soothing, muted colors and simplicity of the foreground. I once visited Ireland and remember it being verdant and overcast; unfortunately I did not see any homes in this style -- indeed, I don't know if any still exist. However, the house dwellings I remember in the countryside were very white.

NOTE ON REPRODUCTIONS: A reproduction means that I looked at another artist’s work and painted an original oil painting of what I saw. For most reproductions, I take artistic license to modify the composition as it suits me. I only sell reproductions of paintings that are in the public domain according to U.S. law, or with permission.


POTENTIAL SURFACE OPTIONS:

CANVAS

Woven Canvas: Elegant double-weave surface texture with excellent color saturation (polyester and cotton). Always coated with satin varnish for protection.

+Mount: Woven Canvas can be mounted on the surface of rigid board or a cradled wood panel, ready for you to frame (frame not included), labelled and signed on the back.

+Brush Strokes: Textured brush strokes can be added to woven canvas to give the look of an original painting; includes gloss varnish for protection (or satin upon request).


PAPER

Paper Matte: 88lb Heavy Photo Matte, Soft White. This is my favorite print paper -- zero gloss, high detail and contrast. A beautiful, classic option!

Paper Linen: 60lb Lightly Textured, Photo Matte.

Paper Canvas: 60lb Enhanced, Highly Textured, Photo Matte.

Paper Metallic: Interesting Luster. Photo paper with a metallic, silver sheen, semi-iridescent.

+Coat: Paper prints can be sprayed with a UV and water-resistant lacquer for a permanent, protective, non-yellowing finish. The manufacturer states the paper can be placed in a frame without glass, as the coating protects it from general indoor elements.

Note: Sometimes there are other paper options, not described here.


GICLÉE PRINT: “Giclée” is a French word pronounced “zhee-clay” meaning, “sprayed or squirted.” My use of the word giclée refers to modern giclée — digital images are printed on archival paper using a professional printer that sprays pigment-based ink. (Some inkjet printers use dye-based ink, which is lower quality.) Using these methods, the prints could last up to 100 years under ideal conditions.

SHIPPING: Arrives in Protective Sleeve and Simple Rigid Envelope.
