Luxe Prints – Premium prints on a variety of high-end fine art paper options and frames for a sophisticated presentation. Some fit standard frames, while others maintain non-standard historical proportions.

Classic Prints – Affordable, high-quality prints with a smoother finish for sharp detail designed to fit off-the-shelf frames. Classic prints have the word 'classic' above the title and a letter which shows the sizes that the print comes in. Size A– 4x6", 12x18", 16x24", 20x30" B– 6x8", 9x12", 12x16", 18x24", 24x30" C– 8x10", 16x20"

Understanding Our Print Sizes

Historical prints vary in proportion based on their original format. Whenever possible, we match them to the closest standard size, using common print ratios like 2:3 (e.g., 8x12) or 3:4 (e.g., 9x12). However, resizing some prints can distort the artwork's integrity, so we can only offer them in their original proportions. Additionally, we use different printers for our product lines, and not all sizes are available with every printer.

Flora Of The Alps is from a 1918 painting by Edward Reginald Frampton, a British muralist known for his serene, flat style influenced by French Symbolism. This piece depicts a girl against the backdrop of a tranquil Alpine scene with lush vegetation, blending soft greens and floral tones into a cohesive landscape.  

Why We Picked It
Frampton's approach, influenced by primitive Italian painting and Pre-Raphaelite design, invites viewers into a world of gentle harmony, where the absence of harsh elements underscores the tranquil beauty of the natural environment. Frampton's signature technique avoids high contrast and cast shadows, favoring a subdued tone to create a sense of calm. The flat treatment is intentional, ensuring a restful effect without dramatic relief or receding distances.

If you're drawn to artwork that reflects a unique style, this print's combination of French Symbolism and Italian influences in unique. The print's soft tones and fluid transitions create calm and a connection to nature making it a great choice for spaces where you want a peaceful ambiance.

Notable Context
The early 20th century saw a broader cultural fascination with the natural world and the Alpine landscape during. As Europe underwent rapid industrialization and urbanization, there emerged a romanticized view of the mountains as pristine sanctuaries of untouched beauty and tranquility. Artists and writers alike were drawn to the rugged majesty of the Alps, seeking inspiration in its soaring peaks, lush valleys, and abundant flora. The art also represents a fascinating intersection of artistic styles and cultural influences prevalent in early 20th-century European art. This unique fusion of influences not only showcases Frampton's artistic versatility but also reflects the cosmopolitan nature of the European art scene during this period. 

The original painting can be seen at the Birmingham Museum Trust.
