Persephone and the Pomegranate

'Persephone and The Pomegranate'- fine art print

In Greek myth, the pomegranate is the symbolic fruit that binds Persephone to the underworld. Hades gave the pomegranate to a famished Persephone, knowing that eating any food from the underworld would bind her to it forever. She eats a few seeds, obligating her to spend part of the year with him. This pact, often said to be six seeds, leads to the cycle of seasons: when Persephone is in the underworld, Demeter mourns and the earth becomes barren (winter), but when she returns, the earth flourishes (spring and summer).

What is a print? 

A print is a reproduction of an original piece of art.

All prints are created using a high resolution digital process to provide a detailed, sharp image on paper.

What is the difference between a print and an Original?

A print is a reproduction of an original piece of art using a high resolution image printed onto smooth top quality paper. All prints have a smooth finish.

An original is a one-of-a-kind piece of art that has been hand painted, using a range of mediums and techniques. All of my originals are created with an impasto technique, leaving the surface textured.

What paper is used for prints?

Heavy Matte Paper 230gsm
A super heavyweight premium matt coated fine art paper. 

From original to prints?

Dispatch:

Made to order. Please allow up to 3 weeks for us to dispatch your art print.

Postage: 

Each print is delicately rolled in tissue paper to protect the artwork. It will then be shipped out in a circular cardboard tube and shipped via FedEx.

Print care:

Carefully open with freshly cleaned and dry hands. Frame behind glass as soon as possible for longevity and display in a room free from moisture.

I strongly recommend framing in art glass which will remove reflections and make the art print feel even more luxurious and closer to the original painting.
