Print details, materials and finishing

Every print is produced and shipped by Pictorem. The details below are the ones Pictorem publishes about its own products; this site reports them and manufactures nothing.

Canvas print — as specified by Pictorem

Material: Poly-cotton blend at 410 g/m², 65% cotton and 35% polyester, matte and acid-free.
Printing: Pigment inkjet (giclée) with eight HP Vivera pigment inks, three of them black.
Resolution: Files are processed at 300 dpi.
Depth: Two wooden stretcher profiles: 3/4 inch, which sits closer to the wall, and 1.5 inch for more presence.
Sides: The picture can be carried around the sides, mirrored, or finished as a plain colour band.
Framing: A floating frame or a decorative moulding can be added when ordering.
Hanging: Delivered with hanging hardware, ready to hang.
Longevity: Pictorem states that its pigment inks resist fading for 100 years or more under normal display conditions.

Choosing what happens at the sides

A stretched print has four visible sides, and you decide what goes on them. When part of the picture matters right up to the border, choose the mirrored or plain finish so nothing is wrapped out of view.

Picture carried round: The picture continues onto the sides. A narrow band moves from the border onto the frame.
Mirrored: The border is flipped onto the sides, so nothing at the front is lost.
Plain band: The sides are a single colour and the picture stops at the front face.

Looking after it

Dust with a dry, soft cloth. No cleaning products, no water.
Keep out of direct sunlight and away from damp rooms.
Hang with the hardware supplied rather than adhesive hooks.

Where Even the Shore Is Not Safe

About this painting

Set in a small coastal village, this abstract landscape captures a quiet contradiction: the boat sits still and secure at its mooring, yet the trees around the harbor bend violently under an unseen wind. The piece suggests that fear and storm are not confined to the open sea — even solid land can tremble when the wind turns. Cool greys, slate blues and muted greens are worked in restless, directional strokes, the whole surface leaning with the gale while the water stays glassy and calm. That tension between stillness and motion is the heart of the painting, and it gives the scene its uneasy, magnetic charge. On a wall it brings a moody, atmospheric depth, well suited to a study, hallway or bedroom where a contemplative, slightly dramatic mood is welcome. Havre Trompeur reminds us that stability is often an illusion, and that no place, however sheltered it appears, is entirely free from turmoil.

Boat and bent trees alike were composed on computer: digital painting, its impasto-style surface AI-assisted.
