Canvas art print of an antique oil painting in a handmade vintage-style frame. Perfect for anyone building a moody, old world gallery wall.
Swans from Apollo, God of Light, Eloquence, Poetry and the Fine Arts with Urania, Muse of Astronomy by Charles Meynier (c.1798). Yes, the original painting has gods, muses, and cosmic themes - but you’re here for the swans. With their arched necks, gliding grace, and “we were born for this fresco” energy, they bring all the elegance without any of the philosophical baggage. Divine animals, cropped for your convenience.
This small oil painting reproduction is printed on archival canvas and paired with a handcrafted frame cast in Hydrostone 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.

This print is currently shown in our small frame, but it's also available in the mini frame. If you'd prefer the mini version, just message me and I’ll make it appear like magic (or at least pretty quickly).
Perfect gift for: swan devotees, classical drama enthusiasts, and anyone who’s ever cropped out a god to focus on the moodier supporting cast.

I wish the print would have arrived "ready to hang". The frame makes the print extremely heavy. Now I have to take the print and find someone to attach a wire to the back of it so it can be hung.
