Small framed reading art print on canvas, vintage reproduction of a quiet bookish moment, ideal for library walls, studies, or reading nook decor.
Reading Woman on a Couch by Isaac Israels (c.1920). She’s reading, reclining, and not making eye contact. She has officially entered that sacred state known as “book coma,” where time stops and social obligations can wait. Her posture says literature, her energy says “don’t talk to me unless it’s about chapter five.” An ode to introverts, intellect, and couches that understand you.
This miniature antique oil painting reproduction reproduction is printed on archival canvas and paired with a handcrafted frame made using a mold from a 19th-century antique. Finished in-studio to capture the texture and patina of a real vintage frame. All the beauty of an heirloom without having to inherit it. Available in aged gold or classic black, depending on your mood (or your wall).
Sized in our Small format, this piece makes a quiet statement on a shelf, gallery wall, or anywhere that needs a little mood and a lot of character. It arrives in a custom gift box that includes a removable art card from my curated collection of early 20th-century Swiss lithographed trading cards. On the back: a short message tied to the image - something between a fortune and a pep talk from the ghosts of a Swiss art collective. They’re collectible, slightly mysterious, and full of charm. Designs vary and yours will be chosen at random unless you request a specific one. See the last photo for the full collection. Inside the box, you’ll find a picture pin and an artist card with all the painting’s details.
