What materials are used for the 24th Street Intersection print?
We use 250 gsm (110 lb) natural white, archival-grade matte paper. This FSC-certified material ensures the Thiebaud reproduction maintains its color vibrancy and integrity for decades without yellowing.
Is the black wooden frame sustainably sourced?
Yes, our frames are made from responsibly sourced oak and ash wood. They measure 20mm in thickness and width, providing a premium, sturdy alternative to the common 14mm frames found elsewhere.
Does the framed print arrive ready to hang?
Absolutely. Every RedKalion framed art print includes a pre-installed hanging kit. You can display your Wayne Thiebaud masterpiece on your wall immediately upon delivery with no extra hardware required.
How is the artwork protected during shipping and display?
We use high-quality shatterproof plexiglass to protect the print from UV rays and physical damage. This ensures your artwork remains safe during transit and looks pristine once displayed in your home.
What makes RedKalion reproductions museum-quality?
RedKalion utilizes advanced printing technology on heavy-weight archival paper. Our 20mm wooden frames and shatterproof glazing meet the rigorous standards of galleries, ensuring a durable, high-fidelity fine art print that lasts.
Why is 24th Street Intersection significant in Thiebaud’s career?
Created in 1977, this piece highlights Thiebaud’s fascination with San Francisco’s extreme hills. It showcases his shift from still life to urban landscapes, emphasizing exaggerated perspective and rhythmic geometric patterns.
What is the 'halation' technique seen in this print?
Halation is Thiebaud’s technique of outlining objects with contrasting, vibrant colors. This creates a visual 'shimmer' that makes the San Francisco streets appear to glow with light and energy.
