1939. Oil on canvas

The formidable collector and society dame Lady Florence Phillips called Irma Stern “That nice girl who paints terrible pictures” (quoted in: Marion Arnold’s Irma Stern: A feast for the eye).

With her bold paint application, unerring sense of vibrant colour and flattening of the picture plane – so that the subjects of her work seem almost squashed or smeared onto the flatness of the canvas – Irma Stern was at first ridiculed and rejected by colonial and conservative the U.K n art-viewing public.

In a country where naturalistic portrait landscape paintings in ‘an english vein’ were celebrated, there was little comprehension for the boldness of her work, and this despite two decades of similar artistic approaches in the Germany where Irma Stern had studied art. This rejection of Stern’s vision was turned on its head by the mid-1930s and by the time of her death in August 1966, Stern had achieved national recognition as arguably the foremost the U.K n artist.

A great image for framing behind glass, or block mounting on canvas to create a focal point and conversation piece in any classic art lovers' home.

For your ease of shopping, we offer a range of standard landscape, portrait & square sizes, but also make custom sizes on request, for a small surcharge.

The standard sizes reflect the outside dimensions of the mounted canvas, floating frame or framed print:
- For Framed Prints, within those dimensions sits the frame, window mount, and print itself.
- For Mounted Canvas + Floating Frame, within those dimensions sits the frame, floating space and canvas itself.
i.e. the footprint on the wall will always be the size shown, whichever option you select.

The table below shows the exact dimensions of each element of the framed products:

Click HERE for a short YouTube video on the three different framing options available, or see below for the detailed product shots.

Framed Prints, behind glass, with 22mm gallery frames in black, white, wood (& other colours for a surcharge):

Mounted Canvas, ready-to-hang, with optional 10mm floating frame in black, white, wood (& other colours for a surcharge):

Printing

We only list art & photography that can be printed up to 3m in size at 300dpi resolution.

On photographs taken a long time ago you may see some graininess, or the canvas texture in some artworks, but this is how the original looks and how it is meant to be reproduced - you never see pixelation in canvas or framed prints from Pixalot, whichever size you purchase.

The in-situ renders you see here are low resolution for website speed purposes, but you are welcome to request a section of the high resoltion image to see the detail you will see on your purchase.

We print on a colour calibrated Epson printer for picture-perfect results.

Framing

Because we also manufacture for top interior designers and luxury decor brands, we do not import cheap product from China, unlike other wall art suppliers.

We make-to-order in our studio in Cape Town, using the highest quality materials and most skilled local craftsmen. We use only the finest wood frames (black, white, ash wood) canvas, mounting card and glass available, and whereas most retailers use 25mm subframes, we stretch the canvas over 45mm subframes, which gives it gravitas on the wall.

All products come ready-to-hang with the necessary brackets, screws and wall plugs.

CLICK HERE to take a look inside our studio.

The framed images and mirrors can be cleaned with standard window cleaner for the glass and a damp cloth on the frames. Please don't use chemicals on the frames.

The canvases come with a protective matt varnish applied, and should also be cleaned only with a damp cloth, not chemicals.

For mainland UK, free delivery is 7-8 business days from order, or Priority Service in 5-6 business days, for £15 per order. For outlying areas, there may be a shipping surcharge, and delivery is expected to take 7-10 working days from order.

The morning after your order is dispatched, you will receive an email notification with the tracking link and direct contact details of our courier partner. We find it better if customers contact them directly for any special delivery instructions.

Please check your order on delivery. Should there be any damage, send it back with the courier and we will replace it immediately.
