Paper size is 57 x 73cm (22.5 x 28.759 inches). The total printed image measures 50.5 x 65cm (19.7/8 x 65 inches).

Unfortunately the base of this print has been damaged. The tear has been repaired, but the image is intact to the upper edge of the border at the base. To mask this repair, the vertical of the window for framing would be 47cm; that is 47 x 65cm (18.5 x 65cm). The damage is not distracting from the beautiful image, but the price has been halved despite this. If you would like a picture of the damaged section please email us at sales@antiqueprintclub.com.
