Framed miniature portrait print on canvas, vintage reproduction of a 19th-century oil painting for gallery walls and antique-inspired decor.
Sancta Immaculata by Carl Zewy (c.1900) is one of those quietly arresting pieces. The young woman is shown in a posture of prayer or contemplation, but it doesn’t feel rigid or overly pious, it’s softer than that. Her eyes are lowered, hands clasped, and the whole thing is bathed in this warm, glowing stillness. The palette is subtle but luminous, with gentle transitions that make her almost seem lit from within.
This small oil painting reproduction is printed on archival canvas and paired with a handcrafted frame cast in Hydrocal plaster, using a mold from a 19th-century antique. Finished in-studio to capture the texture and patina of a real vintage frame, it offers 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 book 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.
