"Venice" by George Elbert Burr is a captivating watercolor painting showcasing the artist's mastery in capturing the essence of the iconic Italian city. Burr, an American painter, etcher, and photographer, skillfully depicts Venice's enchanting cityscape, focusing on its unique architecture and intricate network of canals. The artwork brilliantly emphasizes the interplay of light and reflection, a characteristic feature of Venice's watery landscape. Burr's keen eye for detail brings to life the city's romantic atmosphere, with its historic buildings seemingly floating on the shimmering waters of the Venetian lagoon. Known for his etchings and drypoints of American Western landscapes, Burr demonstrates his versatility in this piece by beautifully rendering the urban beauty of Venice. The painting likely captures the soft, ethereal quality of Venice's light, which has inspired artists for centuries. This watercolor serves as a testament to Burr's artistic prowess and his ability to convey the timeless allure of one of the world's most beloved cities. "Venice" not only represents a slice of Italian beauty but also stands as a significant work in Burr's oeuvre, showcasing his talent beyond his well-known Western subjects.

Quality You Can See (and Feel)
We're serious about quality. Our canvases are made with a super-smooth cotton and polyester base, treated with a special coating. This means your images will be sharp, vibrant, and full of life. Plus, we use inks specifically designed to ensure the canvas colors will stay stunning for years to come. To avoid cropping images and affecting the canvas's quality, our canvases do not have the printed image extending onto the sides of the frame which is left white. Because of how we make our canvases, there might be a tiny difference in size (around +/- 1/8" or 3.2mm).
Good for Your Home, Good for the Earth
We believe in doing things right. That's why the frames for our canvases are crafted from radiata pine, sourced from forests that are managed responsibly. You can feel good knowing your art is helping to support sustainable practices.
Hanging Made Easy
We know you're excited to get your new art on the wall, so we've made it super simple! Each canvas comes with back hanging included for convenient placement. Just unpack it, find the perfect spot, and you're good to go. For most canvases, you can use nails but if you're purchasing a size greater than 30 inches you can also use screws.
Safe & Sound
We only use non-toxic, non-flammable latex inks for our canvases. You can relax and enjoy your art knowing it's safe for you and your family.
No More Slipping and Sliding
Each canvas has soft rubber dots on the bottom corners to keep it perfectly in place on your wall.
No unexpected customs fees: global production made local
Our canvas wall art is made locally in the UK, US or Australia depending on where your order comes from. This means your order should reach you fast (see arrival time indications at checkout). Whilst we can't guarantee shipment times, you will be kept up to date with your order shipment information as soon as your order is shipped and can use our shipping tracker to find out where it's at if there's any delays. The average time it takes to ship your canvas is 2.5 days from the date of your order.
