PS:
Vintage art was not created to fit our modern frame sizes. Most original work is much longer, or too short to fit a standard frame.
Sadly, many print suppliers crop vintage art to make it fit standard sizes, but this risks losing beautiful parts of the artwork.
I believe that you should be able to view the old artwork in its full glory. And so you'll find many of the prints here have non-standard white borders.
These allow you to crop the print to the size you want. Or frame it as it is, or with a matt in a contrasting shade to bring the artwork to life.
Your choice of frame makes a world of difference to your artwork too. Enjoy your print.
