Print on Canvas

LebanonArt is an attractive e-commerce fine art gallery, one that makes art a personal joy that is accessible to all. This it does by presenting the art-lover with the product of the distinctive genius of the artist and poet Joseph Matar.

We who operate this service have been engaged professionally in art e-commerce since 1997, with the websites LebanonArt.com and LebanonArt.net, which are the leader in its field in the Middle East.

LebanonArt.com presents namely original oil paintings, original watercolours and studies, but for the convenience of connoisseurs, it makes fine reproductions available on one site. All the oil paintings you are seeing in our section “Print On Canvas” may be received in print form, each print is individually signed by the artist himself and numbered 1/40 – Limited Edition Prints.

If you are interested in seeing other original works of Joseph Matar, you are cordially invited to check on other categories of LebanonArt.com, which is a rich source of information concerning the artist and his output. It contains no less than 1000 indexed paintings!

The technique of reproduction:

– The artwork is presented as Giclee Print (digital printmaking technology with fantastic results in beauty and quality) on real cotton canvas 400 mu. thick, neutral pH, low dot gain. Great for reproducing oil and acrylic paintings. The reproductions come from very large *.TIF images, about 25 Mega for each photo and about 4200 x 3200 pixels.

– Ink Stability and Treatment: All indications are that the new UV pigmented inks for the Hewlett-Packard DesignJet will have a longevity rating of between 150 and 200 years – the tests are valid for over 100 years so far and are still ongoing by Wilhelm. The surface of the print is treated with thermoplastic acrylic resin. (It is important to note that all colours fade. Depending on the composition of the paints, many original watercolours will fade faster).

– All prints are presented with 2 inches of white canvas border ready to be framed.
The prints do not come framed. The choosing of mats and frames is a matter of personal taste. Local framing shops can best provide you with this type of service.

-The advanced plotter used is the Hewlett-Packard DesignJet design jet printer’s series with the increased colour gamut of their UV pigmented inks.

– Let us offer you extremely affordable Museum quality Giclee prints with colour and longevity consistency and a look almost indistinguishable from the original work of art! Using the new Hewlett-Packard DesignJet & 100+ year HP UV inks, there is no worry of prints fading indoors.

LebanonArt is chargeable for the shipment through D.H.L. services, so you will not be charged. You can expect your print to arrive within 6 days from the date you place your order!
