What makes the Blowball II print museum-quality?
We use 250 gsm archival-grade, acid-free paper and high-pigment inks. This ensures the fine details of M.C. Escher's work are preserved without yellowing or fading over time, meeting museum standards for longevity.
What are the dimensions and material of the frame?
The frame is 70x100 cm and made from premium black-stained oak and ash. It features a 20mm thickness, offering a sturdier and more luxurious appearance than common 14mm alternative frames.
How is the artwork protected during shipping?
Each framed print is secured in robust, protective packaging designed to withstand transit. The use of shatterproof plexiglass ensures your Escher print arrives in pristine condition, ready to hang immediately.
Is this M.C. Escher print sustainably produced?
Yes, RedKalion prioritizes sustainability. We use FSC-certified wood for our frames and paper, ensuring that your fine art purchase supports responsible forest management and environmental ethics.
Does the print come ready to hang?
Absolutely. Every framed art print includes a professional hanging kit. The artwork is pre-assembled within the 20mm black wooden frame, allowing you to elevate your interior decor the moment it arrives.
What was Escher's inspiration for Blowball II?
Escher was obsessed with the structural patterns of the natural world. Blowball II (1943) explores radial symmetry and the transition from a dense center to the light, airborne seeds of a dandelion.
Why is 250 gsm paper important for fine art?
A 250 gsm (110 lb) weight provides the ideal thickness (0.29 mm) for fine art. It prevents warping and ensures the paper remains flat and substantial within the frame for decades.
