Frans Hals, 1625 - Sant Joan Evangelista - gravat artístic

Original artwork description by The J. Paul Getty Museum (© Copyright - by The J. Paul Getty Museum - www.getty.edu)

Observed by his symbol, the eagle, and poised to write God's words, Saint John looks up for divine inspiration, which he receives as brilliant light. Saint John, the Galilean fisherman who became one of Christ's apostles, is traditionally considered the author of the Gospel according to John and of the Bible's Book of Revelation. Hals used only light and handling of paint to create the lifelike, fleeting quality that made his portraits so prized. He chose a dramatic moment, then captured it with bold, spontaneous brushwork. A contemporary reported that Hals called the final touches he made to his canvases "putting in his handwriting"--adding the trademark highlights that give his pictures much of their sparkle.

Treasured by both artists and royalty, Saint John was owned by painter Gerard Hoet and later by Catherine the Great of Russia.

• Tela: A canvas print is a printed cotton canvas mounted on a wooden stretcher. A canvas print has the advantage of being low in weight, meaning that it is easy and straightforward to hang up your Canvas print without any wall-mounts. A canvas print is suitable for any kind of wall.
• Impressió sobre vidre acrílic brillant (amb revestiment de vidre real a la part superior): The acrylic glass print, which is sometimes labelled as a plexiglass print, changes an original artwork into wall décor. Your work of art is printed thanks to the help of state-of-the-art UV print technology. The major benefit of a plexiglass fine art print is that contrasts and also minor artwork details will be recognizeable with the help of the fine tonal gradation. Our plexiglass with real glass coating protects your chosen art print against light and heat for many decades.
• Impressió de pòsters (material de tela): Our poster print is a printed flat canvas paper with a slightly roughened structure on the surface. It is particularly appropriate for putting the art replica with a personal frame. Please note, that depending on the size of the poster we add a white margin 2-6cm round about the work of art, which facilitates the framing.
• Dibond d'alumini: These are metal prints on aluminium dibond with a true depth effect - for a modern look and non-reflective surface structure.
