The work displays the technical precision and focus on classical form that defined his career. Siemiradzki often drew from historical and ethnographic subjects, applying the rigorous training of the Saint Petersburg Academy to his compositions.\n\nThe subject is captured in profile, a classic compositional choice that allows for a clear study of facial structure and light. The artist employs a controlled palette, directing the viewer's attention to the soft modelling of the subject's features. The skin tones are rendered with subtle transitions, contrasting with the darker, atmospheric background. A notable element is the use of a deep blue fabric draped over the subject's shoulders, which provides a saturated colour note against the more neutral tones of the skin and the muted backdrop. The brushwork is smooth and refined, typical of the academic style, which prioritised the concealment of the artist's hand to achieve a polished finish.\n\nSiemiradzki was well-regarded for his ability to balance historical narrative with individual characterisation. In this portrait, he avoids overly dramatic staging, opting instead for a quiet, contemplative mood. The lighting is soft and directional, creating gentle shadows that define the jawline and the curve of the neck. This piece reflects the artist's interest in the human form as a vehicle for aesthetic exploration, demonstrating his command of light, shadow, and colour harmony. The work remains a representative example of the portraiture produced by European academic painters of the period, who sought to combine technical mastery with a sense of classical grace.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0

and the Samaritan Woman - Henryk Siemiradzki","description":"\u003cp\u003eA detailed academic painting by Henryk Siemiradzki depicting the biblical meeting between Christ and the Samaritan woman at a well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHenryk Siemiradzki, a prominent figure in late nineteenth-century European academic painting, produced this work in 1890. The composition depicts the biblical encounter between Jesus and the Samaritan woman at Jacob's Well. Siemiradzki, known for his meticulous attention to historical detail and light, places the figures within a sun-drenched, Mediterranean-inspired setting. The artist employs a balanced arrangement, with Christ seated on the stone edge of the well, gesturing towards the woman who stands opposite him, holding a water vessel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe painting demonstrates the artist's technical proficiency in rendering textures, from the rough, weathered stone of the well to the soft folds of the drapery worn by the figures. The background features an open, airy expanse of olive trees and rolling hills, rendered with a clarity that reflects the artist's training in the traditions of the St. Petersburg and Munich academies. Siemiradzki often sought to combine religious narrative with a sense of archaeological authenticity, ensuring that the costumes and environment align with the period of the subject matter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis work captures a moment of quiet dialogue. The interaction is framed by the natural environment, where the play of light and shadow across the ground suggests the heat of the day. The palette is dominated by earthy ochres, soft greens, and the bright, clear blue of the sky, which provides a sense of depth and atmosphere. Siemiradzki's approach to this scene avoids excessive theatricality, opting instead for a measured, observational quality that characterises much of his output during his time in Rome. The painting remains a clear example of the academic style, where narrative clarity and technical precision are held in high regard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/vue-pres-de-sala-dans-le-duche-de-parme-daniel-dupre\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eVue Pres de Sala, dans le Duche de Parme - Daniel Dupré — Daniel Dupré\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/image-of-the-archangel-gabriel-raphael-morghen\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eImage of the Archangel Gabriel - Raphael Morghen — Raphael Morghen\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Henryk Siemiradzki","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58502276514127,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58502314426703,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58502314459471,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58502314492239,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58502314525007,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58502314557775,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58502314590543,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58502314623311,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58502314656079,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58502314688847,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58502314721615,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58502314754383,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Christ-and-the-Samaritan-Woman_Poster_CompositorV1_1786423243481.jpg?v=1787014466"},{"product_id":"seller-of-vases-henryk-siemiradzki","title":"Seller of Vases - Henryk Siemiradzki","description":"\u003cp\u003eA serene genre scene by Henryk Siemiradzki, depicting a merchant offering ceramic vessels to a woman in a sun-drenched classical setting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHenryk Siemiradzki, a prominent figure in the late nineteenth-century Polish Academic tradition, frequently turned to the classical world for his subject matter. This composition depicts a scene of daily life in antiquity, focusing on a vendor presenting ceramic vessels to a seated woman. The artist employs a soft, sun-drenched palette to evoke the warmth of a Mediterranean climate, a recurring theme in his work following his relocation to Rome.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe figures are positioned against a stone structure, which acts as a stage for the interaction. Siemiradzki demonstrates his technical proficiency through the rendering of the drapery, the textures of the terracotta vases, and the play of light across the stone surfaces. To the right, a donkey stands patiently, adding a sense of quiet realism to the scene. The architecture in the background suggests a hillside town, rendered with a light touch that prevents the setting from overwhelming the primary subjects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSiemiradzki was known for his ability to balance historical accuracy with a narrative quality that appealed to contemporary audiences. His training at the Imperial Academy of Arts in Saint Petersburg is evident here in the precise draughtsmanship and the structured arrangement of the figures. The work avoids excessive drama, opting instead for a contemplative, observational approach to the past. By focusing on a mundane commercial transaction, the artist brings a human dimension to the classical era, moving away from the grand historical battles often associated with the period. The muted tones and careful attention to atmospheric perspective reflect the artist's interest in capturing the specific quality of light found in the Italian countryside, a hallmark of his mature style.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/portrait-of-a-lady-with-a-fan-franz-xaver-winterhalter\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003ePortrait of a Lady with a Fan - Franz Xaver Winterhalter — Franz Xaver Winterhalter\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/young-woman-in-an-interior-auguste-toulmouche\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eYoung Woman In An Interior - Auguste Toulmouche — Auguste Toulmouche\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Henryk Siemiradzki","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58502289523023,"sku":null,"price":37.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58502327370063,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58502327402831,"sku":null,"price":55.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58502327435599,"sku":null,"price":59.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58502327468367,"sku":null,"price":59.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58502327501135,"sku":null,"price":59.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58502327533903,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58502327566671,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58502327599439,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58502327632207,"sku":null,"price":99.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58502327664975,"sku":null,"price":99.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58502327697743,"sku":null,"price":99.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Seller-of-Vases_Poster_CompositorV1_1786423444346.jpg?v=1787014670"},{"product_id":"prince-alexander-nevsky-in-the-golden-horde-henryk-siemiradzki","title":"Prince Alexander Nevsky in the Golden Horde - Henryk Siemiradzki","description":"\u003cp\u003eA dramatic historical painting by Henryk Siemiradzki depicting the encounter between Prince Alexander Nevsky and the Mongol rulers of the Golden Horde.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHenryk Siemiradzki, a Polish painter associated with the Academic tradition, produced this work depicting the historical encounter between Prince Alexander Nevsky and the Mongol rulers of the Golden Horde.

The light is soft, suggesting a late afternoon sun that casts gentle shadows across the rocky outcrop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis painting reflects the artist's technical proficiency in handling light and atmosphere.

The work remains a representative example of the academic tradition, where precision in drawing and a refined approach to colour were paramount. The figures are arranged to guide the viewer's eye from the immediate foreground, where the basket of fruit sits, across the seated group, and finally toward the horizon. This careful construction creates a sense of depth and spatial clarity, typical of the artist's mature period.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/portrait-of-a-lady-with-a-fan-franz-xaver-winterhalter\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003ePortrait of a Lady with a Fan - Franz Xaver Winterhalter — Franz Xaver Winterhalter\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/five-minutes-late-auguste-toulmouche\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eFive Minutes Late - Auguste Toulmouche — Auguste Toulmouche\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Henryk Siemiradzki","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58502478954831,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58502488555855,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58502488588623,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58502488621391,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58502488654159,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58502488686927,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58502488719695,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58502488752463,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58502488785231,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58502488817999,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58502488850767,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58502488883535,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/The-Rest_Poster_CompositorV1_1786424764549.jpg?v=1787016490"},{"product_id":"woman-with-amours-henryk-siemiradzki","title":"Woman with Amours - Henryk Siemiradzki","description":"\u003cp\u003eA delicate study by Henryk Siemiradzki featuring a classical female figure and a putto, rendered in graphite and watercolour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHenryk Siemiradzki, a prominent figure in the late nineteenth-century Academic tradition, frequently turned to classical antiquity for his subject matter. This study, rendered in graphite and watercolour, captures a quiet, allegorical moment between a female figure and a putto, or amor. The composition reflects the artist's training in the St. Petersburg Academy of Arts and his subsequent time in Rome, where he absorbed the influence of the Italian Renaissance and the neoclassical revival.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe woman, draped in classical attire, sits with her back to the viewer, her posture suggesting a gentle interaction with the small, winged figure beside her. Siemiradzki employs a restrained palette, relying on sepia tones and muted washes to define the forms. The background is suggested through light, cross-hatched graphite marks, which provide a sense of space without distracting from the primary figures. A basket containing arrows sits nearby, a clear iconographic reference to Cupid and the themes of love and mythology that permeated the artist's larger oil paintings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSiemiradzki was known for his technical precision and his ability to balance historical accuracy with a romanticised view of the ancient world.

The soft application of watercolour over the graphite underdrawing creates a sense of volume and texture, particularly in the folds of the woman's garment. By focusing on the intimate connection between the figures, the artist moves away from the grand, theatrical scale of his monumental canvases, offering instead a glimpse into his process and his fascination with classical motifs.

The composition depicts the legendary Athenian hetaira Phryne during the festival of Poseidon at Eleusis. According to ancient accounts, Phryne would emerge from the sea as Aphrodite Anadyomene, a spectacle that drew crowds of admirers and observers. Siemiradzki captures the moment with meticulous attention to the classical setting, including the marble architecture, the coastal light, and the varied reactions of the gathered populace.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe painting demonstrates the artist's technical proficiency in handling light and shadow, particularly in the way the Mediterranean sun illuminates the central figure of Phryne. The surrounding figures are rendered with individualised expressions and gestures, creating a sense of narrative movement across the canvas. Siemiradzki was known for his ability to reconstruct antiquity through a lens of theatrical realism, a style that was highly regarded within the European academic tradition of the period.

The expansive view of the sea and the distant hills provides a sense of scale, grounding the mythological subject in a tangible, physical environment.

His work often draws upon classical antiquity, placing figures within Mediterranean settings that evoke the atmosphere of the ancient world. In this composition, the artist depicts a quiet scene situated near a stone basin. The interplay of light and shadow is a primary concern, as dappled sunlight filters through the dense foliage of the trees, casting patterns across the figures and the weathered masonry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe figures are dressed in classical attire, suggesting a narrative rooted in the daily life of antiquity. One woman stands near the water, while another rests nearby, creating a sense of stillness and domesticity. The stone structure, possibly a fountain or a decorative element of a garden, provides a solid architectural anchor to the composition. Siemiradzki employs a palette dominated by earthy tones, punctuated by the cooler blue of the pool and the bright highlights on the clothing of the figures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTechnically, the painting demonstrates the artist's ability to balance precise detail with a looser, more atmospheric handling of the surrounding environment. The trees and vegetation are rendered with a focus on the effects of light, which contrasts with the more defined forms of the figures and the stone basin. This approach allows the viewer to focus on the interaction between the human subjects and their environment. The work reflects the broader European interest in historical genre painting during the late nineteenth century, where artists sought to reconstruct the past through careful observation of light, form, and human gesture.

The figure in the foreground, draped in classical attire, is positioned against the gnarled trunk of a tree, creating a vertical anchor for the scene. Below, a small boat carries figures across the calm surface of the water, their forms reflected in the stillness. Siemiradzki balances the detailed rendering of the foliage and rocky terrain with the broader, more ethereal treatment of the sky and distant hills.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSiemiradzki spent much of his career in Rome, which allowed him to study the light and topography of the Italian countryside. This influence is evident in the way he integrates his figures into their surroundings. Rather than focusing on grand historical events, he often chose to depict scenes of daily life, imbuing them with a sense of calm and timelessness. His approach to painting involved careful preparation, resulting in works that possess a high degree of finish and structural clarity. The interplay between the dark, textured foreground and the pale, atmospheric background demonstrates his skill in managing depth and focus.

His work often draws upon classical antiquity, blending historical subjects with the natural beauty of the Mediterranean.

Angels emerge from luminous clouds, their drapery rendered in soft, flowing brushwork that contrasts with the more solid, grounded figures of the central pair.

This print captures the artist's attention to the interplay between shadow and illumination, a technique he refined through his study of Roman light and classical sculpture. The work reflects the broader European interest in monumental religious themes during the late Victorian era, presented here with the technical rigour that defined the academic tradition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/vue-pres-de-sala-dans-le-duche-de-parme-daniel-dupre\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eVue Pres de Sala, dans le Duche de Parme - Daniel Dupré — Daniel Dupré\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/image-of-the-archangel-gabriel-raphael-morghen\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eImage of the Archangel Gabriel - Raphael Morghen — Raphael Morghen\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Henryk Siemiradzki","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58502643810639,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58502670942543,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58502670975311,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58502671008079,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58502671040847,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58502671073615,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58502671106383,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58502671139151,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58502671171919,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58502671204687,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58502671237455,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58502671270223,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Baptism-of-Christ_Poster_CompositorV1_1786426565298.jpg?v=1787019076"},{"product_id":"phryne-at-the-poseidonia-in-eleusis-henryk-siemiradzki-1","title":"Phryne at the Poseidonia in Eleusis - Henryk Siemiradzki","description":"\u003cp\u003eA detailed scene of the festival of Poseidon in Eleusis, painted by Henryk Siemiradzki in 1889, capturing the classical atmosphere of ancient Greece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis work by Henryk Siemiradzki depicts a scene from ancient Greek life, specifically the festival of Poseidon at Eleusis.

This work, By a Temple (Idyll), captures a quiet moment of domestic life set against an ancient Mediterranean backdrop.

The narrative depicts the Macedonian king, suffering from a severe illness, as he receives a medicinal draught from his physician, Philip of Acarnania. The scene is drawn from the accounts of Arrian and Quintus Curtius Rufus, which describe how Alexander received a letter accusing Philip of intending to poison him. In a display of absolute trust, Alexander drinks the medicine while handing the letter to his doctor to read.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSiemiradzki constructs the composition with the precision characteristic of his training at the Imperial Academy of Arts in Saint Petersburg.

The lighting is theatrical, focusing on the interaction between the two central figures. The physician, standing to the left, holds the letter with a look of calm concern, while the reclining Alexander, draped in a deep green cloth, prepares to consume the potion. The surrounding figures, including a young attendant and soldiers in the background, provide a sense of scale and historical atmosphere.

The composition focuses on the solemnity of the ecclesiastical ceremony, set within the dim, atmospheric interior of a medieval church. A central figure, likely a high-ranking cleric, performs a ritual gesture over the deceased prince, whose presence is marked by a faint, luminous halo.

The architectural elements in the background, including the suggestion of icons and stone walls, provide a sense of place and period.

The composition reflects the artist's fascination with classical antiquity, a subject he approached with rigorous technical precision and a keen eye for archaeological detail. Siemiradzki was known for his ability to reconstruct the atmosphere of the ancient world, often focusing on the daily lives, rituals, and leisure activities of its inhabitants rather than purely political or military narratives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn this scene, the artist presents a gathering by the sea, where figures in classical drapery engage in various activities. The central focus is a standing female figure, surrounded by attendants and onlookers. The setting includes architectural elements such as a stone pedestal and a column adorned with floral arrangements, which suggest a ceremonial or festive occasion. The light is soft, typical of the Mediterranean climate that Siemiradzki frequently captured in his work. His brushwork is smooth, characteristic of the Academic tradition, which prioritised clarity of form and a polished finish.

The subject is depicted in a three-quarter profile, her gaze directed away from the viewer, which creates a sense of quiet introspection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe composition is defined by the contrast between the subject and the decorative backdrop.

The attention to detail, from the folds of the fabric to the subtle reflections on the water surface, displays the high level of craftsmanship associated with the late nineteenth-century European academic tradition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/vue-pres-de-sala-dans-le-duche-de-parme-daniel-dupre\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eVue Pres de Sala, dans le Duche de Parme - Daniel Dupré — Daniel Dupré\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/image-of-the-archangel-gabriel-raphael-morghen\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eImage of the Archangel Gabriel - Raphael Morghen — Raphael Morghen\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Henryk Siemiradzki","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58502715408719,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58502719439183,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58502719471951,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58502719504719,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58502719537487,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58502719570255,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58502719603023,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58502719635791,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58502719668559,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58502719701327,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58502719734095,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58502719766863,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/By-a-Pool_Poster_CompositorV1_1786428397673.jpg?v=1787021137"},{"product_id":"christ-in-the-house-of-martha-and-mary-henryk-siemiradzki","title":"Christ in the House of Martha and Mary - Henryk Siemiradzki","description":"\u003cp\u003eA detailed Academic painting by Henryk Siemiradzki depicting a quiet, sun-drenched biblical scene in a Mediterranean courtyard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHenryk Siemiradzki, a Polish painter associated with the Academic tradition, produced this work in 1886. The composition depicts a biblical scene: Christ sits upon a stone ledge, gesturing as he speaks to Mary, who is seated at his feet. In the background, Martha is visible near a structure, attending to domestic tasks. The setting is an open-air courtyard, shaded by a trellis and an ancient olive tree, which provides a sense of Mediterranean atmosphere.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSiemiradzki was known for his technical precision and his ability to render light and texture. The painting demonstrates his interest in historical and religious subjects, often treated with a focus on archaeological accuracy and naturalistic detail. The play of sunlight filtering through the leaves onto the stone surfaces and the patterned rug creates a realistic environment. The figures are dressed in period-appropriate garments, and the inclusion of domestic items, such as the pottery and the birds near the steps, adds to the narrative quality of the scene.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis work reflects the artist's training in the Saint Petersburg Academy of Arts and his time spent in Rome, where he absorbed the influence of classical antiquity. His approach to religious painting avoids overly dramatic gestures, opting instead for a quiet, contemplative interaction between the figures. The colour palette is dominated by warm, earthy tones, which complement the sun-drenched setting. The attention to the textures of the stone, the fabric of the clothing, and the foliage demonstrates the artist's skill in traditional oil painting techniques.

Her gaze is directed away from the viewer, suggesting a quiet, contemplative state.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe subject wears a draped garment in a striking shade of turquoise, which provides a cool contrast to the warm, dark tones of the background.

The figures are not merely static subjects but are integrated into the narrative, each contributing to the overall sense of movement and energy. The painting reflects the nineteenth-century fascination with the classical past, presented through a lens of technical virtuosity and narrative clarity.

The composition depicts a scene of maritime plunder, set within the confines of a coastal grotto.

A small boat, containing a man and a woman, occupies the foreground, while the larger group of corsairs remains positioned near the rocky shore. Siemiradzki demonstrates his technical proficiency through the precise rendering of textures, from the rough stone of the cave walls to the soft drapery of the garments and the reflective surface of the water.

In this work, he presents a quiet, intimate scene set against the backdrop of ancient Pompeii. The composition focuses on two figures, likely young inhabitants of the city, captured in a moment of stillness during the evening hours. The artist employs a muted colour palette, dominated by shadows and soft, atmospheric light, which draws the viewer into the hushed environment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe primary light source emanates from a small, glowing object held in the hand of the figure on the right. This singular point of illumination provides a sharp contrast to the surrounding darkness, casting gentle highlights upon the faces and drapery of the subjects. Siemiradzki demonstrates his technical skill through the rendering of textures, from the folds of the classical garments to the subtle play of light on skin. The background, while partially obscured by the gloom, suggests an architectural setting, providing context to the historical narrative.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSiemiradzki spent much of his career in Rome, where he became deeply familiar with the archaeological findings of the period.

The work captures the subject in a formal, dignified pose, reflecting the conventions of nineteenth-century portraiture. Wodzicki is depicted wearing a dark velvet coat, which contrasts with the ornate, light-coloured sash tied at his waist.

This work depicts a solitary figure in classical attire gathering water from a stone fountain. The composition reflects the artist's interest in the daily life of antiquity, a recurring theme throughout his career. Siemiradzki spent much of his professional life in Rome, where the Mediterranean light and the remnants of classical architecture informed his aesthetic approach.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe figure stands in profile, her posture relaxed as she holds a dark vessel beneath the stream of water. The fountain, adorned with a carved mask, serves as the structural anchor of the scene. To the left, a gnarled tree trunk provides a vertical contrast to the soft, flowing drapery of the woman's garments. The background suggests a distant, hazy view, typical of the artist's atmospheric treatment of space. His technique involves a careful balance of light and shadow, which defines the form of the subject while maintaining a sense of quietude.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSiemiradzki was known for his ability to combine historical accuracy with a romanticised view of the past. His works often feature figures integrated into natural or architectural settings, creating a narrative that feels both staged and observational. The brushwork here is controlled, allowing for the subtle rendering of textures, from the rough stone of the fountain to the smooth fabric of the woman's dress. This print captures the specific tonal qualities of the original oil painting, preserving the muted palette and the soft, diffused lighting that characterises the artist's approach to genre scenes.

The composition is designed for a lunette, a semi-circular architectural space, which dictates the arrangement of the figures. Christ is positioned at the centre, mounted on a donkey, with his hand raised in a gesture of blessing. He is draped in a bright blue robe, which contrasts with the muted, earthy tones of the surrounding crowd.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe scene depicts the biblical account of the entry into Jerusalem. Siemiradzki focuses on the interaction between the central figure and the gathered onlookers. The crowd is composed of various individuals, some kneeling or reaching out, creating a sense of movement and anticipation. The artist employs a technique typical of the late nineteenth-century Academic style, prioritising clear narrative structure and precise anatomical rendering. The background suggests the stone walls of the city, rendered with a light, sun-bleached quality that pushes the figures into the foreground.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSiemiradzki was known for his large-scale historical and religious canvases, often drawing inspiration from classical antiquity and biblical themes.

This work demonstrates his ability to manage complex groups of figures within a constrained architectural format. The use of light is particularly effective in drawing the viewer's eye toward the central figure of Christ, while the surrounding figures provide a sense of scale and human response to the event.

This work, depicting the Svislach river, demonstrates his ability to capture the specific light and atmosphere of the Eastern European countryside.

The painting depicts the legendary Athenian hetaira Phryne during the festival of Poseidon. Siemiradzki, a master of the Academic tradition, focuses on the interplay of light and classical form. The central figure of Phryne is rendered with precise anatomical accuracy, her pale skin contrasting against the sun-drenched Mediterranean setting.

The scene is not merely a depiction of a historical event, but a demonstration of the artist's technical proficiency in handling light, texture, and human anatomy. The inclusion of specific architectural elements and period-accurate accessories provides a sense of historical immersion, characteristic of the late nineteenth-century interest in classical antiquity. This work remains a representative example of the artist's ability to combine narrative drama with a refined, polished aesthetic, typical of the European academies of the era.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/roman-girl-at-a-fountain-leon-bonnat-1\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eRoman Girl at a Fountain - Léon Bonnat — Léon Bonnat\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/the-sorrow-of-telemachus-angelica-kauffmann\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eThe Sorrow of Telemachus - Angelica Kauffmann — Angelica Kauffmann\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Henryk Siemiradzki","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58502868238671,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58502873153871,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58502873186639,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58502873219407,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58502873252175,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58502873284943,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58502873317711,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58502873350479,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58502873383247,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58502873416015,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58502873448783,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58502873481551,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Phryne-at-the-Poseidonia-in-Eleusis_Poster_CompositorV1_1786430438958.jpg?v=1787024123"},{"product_id":"orgy-of-the-times-of-tiberius-on-capri-henryk-siemiradzki","title":"Orgy of the Times of Tiberius on Capri - Henryk Siemiradzki","description":"\u003cp\u003eA dramatic historical scene by Henryk Siemiradzki, depicting a nocturnal revelry on the coast of Capri during the reign of Emperor Tiberius.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHenryk Siemiradzki, a master of the Academic tradition, produced this large-scale composition in 1881. The work depicts a scene of decadence set against the rugged coastline of Capri, referencing the historical accounts of the Roman Emperor Tiberius. Siemiradzki focuses on the contrast between the wild, torch-lit revelry of the figures and the cold, unforgiving nature of the rocky shore and the dark sea.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe painting demonstrates the artist's technical precision in rendering human anatomy and the play of light. The figures are caught in motion, their garments and gestures suggesting a frantic energy that clashes with the stillness of the surrounding environment. In the distance, a lighthouse stands as a solitary beacon, providing a sense of scale and isolation. The palette is dominated by cool blues and greys of the night sky and water, which serve to amplify the warmth of the torches held by the revellers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSiemiradzki was known for his ability to recreate antiquity with meticulous attention to detail. This work reflects his interest in the moral ambiguities of Roman history, presenting a narrative that balances beauty with a sense of unease. The composition is carefully structured to draw the eye across the rocky foreground, where the remnants of the party lie, towards the central group of dancers. The artist employs a high degree of finish, typical of the late nineteenth-century European academies, ensuring that every texture, from the rough stone to the soft fabric of the robes, is rendered with clarity. This print captures the atmospheric tension and the dramatic lighting effects that define Siemiradzki's approach to historical storytelling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/portrait-of-a-lady-with-a-fan-franz-xaver-winterhalter\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003ePortrait of a Lady with a Fan - Franz Xaver Winterhalter — Franz Xaver Winterhalter\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/the-monk-and-the-beggar-fyodor-bronnikov\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eThe Monk and the Beggar - Fyodor Bronnikov — Fyodor Bronnikov\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Henryk Siemiradzki","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58502869647695,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58502877905231,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58502877937999,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58502877970767,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58502878003535,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58502878036303,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58502878069071,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58502878101839,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58502878134607,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58502878167375,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58502878200143,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58502878232911,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Orgy-of-the-Times-of-Tiberius-on-Capri_Poster_CompositorV1_1786430645059.jpg?v=1787024284"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.com\/collections\/henryk-siemiradzki.oembed?page=2","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
