Times are changing rapidly. Today there are already a lot of things that five years ago we didn’t think about. Today we’re going to talk about posters, prints on canvas.
Opening the Internet in search of a painting, we increasingly come across the fact that we are offered a huge variety of paintings on any subject. You can even have an absolute copy of Van Gogh, Rembrandt or any other great painter of the past and present at your home. Today the progress of printing markedly stepped forward, offering printing on anything, including a canvas. And it is basically a great substitute for painting and pictures, if you want to buy paintings for the interior, and at the same time to do everything quickly and cheaply. For example, to decorate an office or a cafe, you choose the desired themes and subjects, and in a day or two everything is ready! Yes, and the price doesn’t depend on what is depicted there, but only the volume of materials used. In principle, not bad!
Such paintings-posters are usually printed on natural linen canvases by large format printer. Then to give a more natural effect, they are worked through with paints and covered with texture gel or varnish. The quality of printing is usually very high, which makes it possible to reproduce the entire palette of colors and shades indistinguishable from the original. In this case, the detail of the plot will be almost the same at all sizes. And the best thing about this pleasure is the low price, compared to a “live” picture.
But we want to tell you, friends, that as you know yourself, no fake or imitation of the original, not even a gram will not add value to the work that was invested in the idea and development of the original. It’s like swapping fresh flowers for plastic flowers. There is no artistic or aesthetic value in a poster, and you can never sell it in case you want to change your interior. It’s just not worth anything, because you can print the same one for the whole country!
When you go into someone’s house, visit a cafe or restaurant, stay in a hotel, go to the offices of companies and firms, you will always feel the difference if there are original beautiful things or cheap “plastic” analogues of them. This also applies to paintings and posters. Real paintings by artists are always a rich decoration of any interior, any room. Yes, they don’t cost as much as posters. But remember the times when there were no posters. And paintings were, and always will be an original, distinctive feature of your interior.
We are not urging you to give up posters, functionally they are needed as well. We call not to change real values for props, not to belittle work, creativity and individuality of those who create beautiful things, those whose talent is from God!
