Mona Lisa Framed Canvas $77.99 Accentuate your home or office with this framed canvas reproduction of the Mona Lisa. In painting the Mona Lisa, da Vinci employed his famous invention, the technique of sfumato. Sfumato is essentially the blurred outline, the form left vague, as though disappearing into a shadow, softened colors that allow one form to merge into another. Since expression rests mainly in two features: the corners of the mouth, and the corners of the eyes, these were left deliberately indistinct by da Vinci. That is why we are never quite certain in what mood Mona Lisa is really looking at us. Additionally, notice the two sides of the background do not quite match. Also noteworthy is that many details are not visible today because of partial damage or restoration paint. Our canvas fine art replicas surpass most reproductions available in the market today. Each canvas is recreated in amazing detail so that even the subtlest brushstroke becomes vibrant. Artist-grade canvas is hand-stretched over wooden stretcher bars by skilled artisans and hand-coated with protectants to insure archival properties. Mona Lisa includes a sculpted frame with gentle engravings designed to emphasize the art. The frame also includes a wooden liner with a subtle fillet. The frame color is a gold on gold with woodsy undertones on both the liner and the 2nd inside tier of the frame. This framed canvas is being custom built for you.
