Prettau - Tokyo Tōri (vertical)

Note for potential art collectors: If you are considering collecting art from Prettaugallery, we recommend taking the following points into account: 1. Only the canvases are shipped; the frames are specially made from solid wood for studio use. Therefore, you will need to install the canvas on an appropriate frame yourself. 2. After stretching the canvas on the chassis, we recommend applying a layer of transparent varnish for acrylics and oil. This will protect the canvas and enhance the colors. 3. The lighting effects you may observe on phone or computer screens enhance the optical reflectivity properties. However, the canvas will display a less vibrant image compared to what a backlit screen can provide, resulting in a reduction of contrast and color saturation. 4. The artworks offered are not reproductions or giclées; they are complex compositions of layers, shadows, transparencies and nuances of sfumato. Reproducing certain details in photography can sometimes be challenging. Feel free to contact the seller if you have specific questions about a piece. 5. Considering art valuation a complex process, encompassing an artist's significance, history, the quality and uniqueness of their work and their rate in the broader market, the median estimated value of Prettau's artworks has acquired an official recognition having a stable reference point, as agreed rate.
