N0. 33 - Syracuse (Architectural Fragment) by Jan Ciągliński 1910

Miniature framed cityscape art print on canvas, vintage-style reproduction of an early 20th-century Italian architectural painting. Ideal for European decor, old world interiors, and lovers of classical city views with timeless atmosphere.

Syracuse (Architectural Fragment) by Jan Ciągliński (1910) captures the golden architecture of Sicily in warm Mediterranean light. Rather than painting the city as a postcard view, Ciągliński focused on a single architectural fragment - a sunlit corner that feels both ancient and alive. He belonged to the early wave of Polish Symbolists who traveled through Europe chasing color and atmosphere, and this work shows that sensibility in full force: painterly brushwork, shifting light, and a sense that history itself is glowing through the walls.

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 Mini 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.

Perfect gift for:
