Boldini was known for his portraits of fashionable women, and this painting captures a leisurely scene of upper-class life. The Impressionist style is evident in the loose brushwork and focus on capturing the fleeting effects of light and atmosphere. \n\nThe painting depicts a group of figures engaged in a game of croquet in a garden setting. The figures are rendered with quick, energetic strokes, giving the impression of movement and spontaneity. The colour palette is dominated by greens and browns, with touches of yellow and white to suggest the fading light of dusk. The composition is somewhat unconventional, with the figures arranged in a seemingly casual manner, further contributing to the sense of informality and ease. The painting evokes a sense of Belle Époque leisure and elegance.\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=\"\/en-nz\/products\/portrait-of-charles-i-of-england-anthony-van-dyck\" 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 Charles I of England - Anthony van Dyck — Anthony van Dyck\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/en-nz\/products\/apotheosis-of-hercules-giovanni-domenico-tiepolo\" 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;\"\u003eApotheosis of Hercules - Giovanni Domenico Tiepolo — Giovanni Domenico Tiepolo\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/en-nz\/collections\/giovanni-boldini\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#2a555a;border:1px solid #2a555a;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#ffffff;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eMore by Giovanni Boldini →\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Giovanni Boldini","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":57254604767567,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":57254604833103,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":57254604931407,"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":57254604964175,"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":57254605029711,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ B2 (50x70 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":57254605062479,"sku":null,"price":117.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ B2 (50x70 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":57254605095247,"sku":null,"price":117.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A1 (59.4 x 84.1  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":57254605160783,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A1 (59.4 x 84.1  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":57254605226319,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ White frame","offer_id":58228829749583,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ White frame","offer_id":58228829782351,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ White frame","offer_id":58228829815119,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ B2 (50x70 cm) \/ White frame","offer_id":58228829847887,"sku":null,"price":117.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A1 (59.4 x 84.1  cm) \/ White frame","offer_id":58228829880655,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Canvas \/ XS Canvas (20x30cm) \/ -","offer_id":58228830404943,"sku":null,"price":30.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Canvas \/ Small Canvas (30x40cm) \/ -","offer_id":58228830437711,"sku":null,"price":50.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Canvas \/ B2 (50x70 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58228830503247,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/file_2caed882-033a-4430-87d6-3f0aa77f28ae.jpg?v=1777155542"},{"product_id":"james-a-mcneill-whistler-asleep-giovanni-boldini","title":"James A.

The fine lines and intimate composition capture the essence of the artist in repose.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis etching by Giovanni Boldini captures the American artist James Abbott McNeill Whistler in a moment of repose. Boldini, an Italian painter and etcher known for his portraits and energetic style, here presents a more intimate and informal depiction of his contemporary. The work is rendered with fine, delicate lines, characteristic of the etching process, and the composition focuses on Whistler's upper body and head, capturing his relaxed posture and closed eyes. The inscription at the bottom reads 'Al mio amico Royal Cortissoz, Boldini'. Royal Cortissoz was an American art critic and editor. The print is a personal dedication to a friend, adding a layer of meaning to the portrait. Boldini's portrait of Whistler provides a glimpse into the artistic circles of the late 19th century. Whistler, known for his aestheticism and tonalist paintings, was a prominent figure in the art world, and this portrayal by Boldini offers a unique perspective on his personality. The etching's monochromatic palette and emphasis on line work contribute to its understated elegance, making it a compelling example of portraiture from this 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=\"\/en-nz\/products\/portrait-of-charles-i-of-england-anthony-van-dyck\" 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 Charles I of England - Anthony van Dyck — Anthony van Dyck\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/en-nz\/products\/old-woman-with-rags-james-mcneill-whistler\" 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;\"\u003eOld Woman with Rags - James McNeill Whistler — James McNeill Whistler\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Giovanni Boldini","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":57588506919247,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":57588506984783,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":57588507083087,"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":57588507115855,"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":57588507181391,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ B2 (50x70 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":57588507214159,"sku":null,"price":117.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ B2 (50x70 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":57588507246927,"sku":null,"price":117.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A1 (59.4 x 84.1  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":57588507312463,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A1 (59.4 x 84.1  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":57588507377999,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/file_5c90055d-63ea-498d-9cb5-dae221854c98.jpg?v=1777448160"},{"product_id":"the-letter-giovanni-boldini","title":"The Letter - Giovanni Boldini","description":"\u003cp\u003eA woman in an elaborate gown reads a letter in this painting by Giovanni Boldini.

Boldini's skill in capturing the essence of a moment is evident in this work, making it a fine example of Impressionistic painting.\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=\"\/en-nz\/products\/impression-sunrise-claude-monet-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;\"\u003eImpression, Sunrise - Claude Monet — Claude Monet\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/en-nz\/products\/miss-elsie-palmer-john-singer-sargent\" 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;\"\u003eMiss Elsie Palmer - John Singer Sargent — John Singer Sargent\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Giovanni Boldini","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ -","offer_id":57754577273167,"sku":null,"price":37.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ -","offer_id":57754581107023,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ -","offer_id":57754581139791,"sku":null,"price":55.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/The-Great-Road-in-the-Villas-Combes_Poster_CompositorV1_1779412324768.jpg?v=1779414510"},{"product_id":"portrait-of-sem-georges-goursat-giovanni-boldini","title":"Portrait of Sem (Georges Goursat) - Giovanni Boldini","description":"\u003cp\u003eA portrait of French caricaturist Georges Goursat (Sem) by Giovanni Boldini, dated 1901.

Boldini, an Italian genre and portrait painter who lived in Paris for much of his career, was celebrated for his energetic style and ability to capture the dynamism of his subjects. His portraits often convey a sense of movement and immediacy, reflecting the spirit of the era. In this painting, Sem is shown in a three-quarter view, his gaze direct and engaging. The brushwork is loose and expressive, particularly in the background and clothing, creating a sense of spontaneity. The colour palette is restrained, with muted browns and blacks contrasting with the lighter tones of Sem's face. Boldini's signature and the date, 1901, are visible in the lower right corner, confirming the painting's authenticity and period.

This portrait depicts the French painter John Lewis Brown alongside his wife and daughter. The composition reflects the artist's ability to convey the energy of his subjects through loose, gestural marks rather than rigid academic precision.\n\nBoldini focuses on the character of the sitters, particularly the central figure of Brown, whose top hat and beard are rendered with swift, confident strokes. The dark, formal attire of the family contrasts against the muted, atmospheric background, a common technique in Boldini's work to draw attention to the faces and expressions of his subjects. The painting avoids excessive detail in the clothing, choosing instead to suggest texture and movement through the application of paint.\n\nThis work is characteristic of the artist's output during the 1890s, a period when he became a preferred portraitist for the Parisian aristocracy and the wealthy bourgeoisie. His approach to portraiture often involved a sense of immediacy, as if the subjects were caught in a fleeting moment of social interaction. The muted colour palette, dominated by browns, blacks, and soft ochres, provides a sophisticated backdrop that allows the personality of the sitters to emerge. By prioritising the rhythm of his brush over static realism, Boldini creates a sense of life that defines his contribution to European portraiture of the era.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Giovanni Boldini","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58251721736527,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58251721802063,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ White frame","offer_id":58251721834831,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58251721933135,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ White frame","offer_id":58251721965903,"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":58251721998671,"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":58251722064207,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ White frame","offer_id":58251722096975,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ B2 (50x70 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58251722129743,"sku":null,"price":117.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ B2 (50x70 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58251722162511,"sku":null,"price":117.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ B2 (50x70 cm) \/ White frame","offer_id":58251722228047,"sku":null,"price":117.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A1 (59.4 x 84.1  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58251722260815,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A1 (59.4 x 84.1  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58251722326351,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A1 (59.4 x 84.1  cm) \/ White frame","offer_id":58251722359119,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Canvas \/ XS Canvas (20x30cm) \/ -","offer_id":58251722883407,"sku":null,"price":30.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Canvas \/ Small Canvas (30x40cm) \/ -","offer_id":58251722916175,"sku":null,"price":50.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Canvas \/ B2 (50x70 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58251722981711,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/John-Lewis-Brown-with-Wife-and-Daughter_Poster_CompositorV1_1782354130481.jpg?v=1782354302"},{"product_id":"peaceful-days-giovanni-boldini","title":"Peaceful Days - Giovanni Boldini","description":"\u003cp\u003eA quiet domestic scene by Giovanni Boldini, capturing a woman sewing on a sofa while a child plays on a patterned rug.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eGiovanni Boldini, an Italian painter based in Paris, produced this work during his residency in the French capital. The composition depicts a domestic interior, capturing a quiet moment of leisure. A woman sits upon a Louis XVI-style sofa, occupied with needlework, while a child plays on a patterned rug at her feet. The scene is defined by the contrast between the loose, fluid brushwork used for the figures and the more structured, muted treatment of the architectural panelling in the background.\n\nBoldini is often associated with his later, high-society portraits, yet this piece demonstrates his early interest in genre subjects. The painting reflects the bourgeois domesticity of the late nineteenth century. The presence of a cello resting against a chair adds a musical element to the quietude of the room. The artist employs a palette of soft greys and whites, punctuated by the warmer tones of the rug and the woman's garment. The light enters from the left, illuminating the figures and casting soft shadows across the wooden floorboards. This work provides an insight into the artist's technical ability to balance spontaneity with careful observation of light and texture. The focus remains on the intimacy of the interaction, avoiding excessive narrative detail in favour of a captured atmosphere. The work is currently held in the collection of the Sterling and Francine Clark Art Institute.\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=\"\/en-nz\/products\/portrait-of-charles-i-of-england-anthony-van-dyck\" 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 Charles I of England - Anthony van Dyck — Anthony van Dyck\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/en-nz\/products\/apotheosis-of-hercules-giovanni-domenico-tiepolo\" 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;\"\u003eApotheosis of Hercules - Giovanni Domenico Tiepolo — Giovanni Domenico Tiepolo\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Giovanni Boldini","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58232864702799,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58232864768335,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ White frame","offer_id":58232864801103,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58232864899407,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ White frame","offer_id":58232864932175,"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":58232864964943,"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":58232865030479,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ White frame","offer_id":58232865063247,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ B2 (50x70 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58232865096015,"sku":null,"price":117.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ B2 (50x70 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58232865128783,"sku":null,"price":117.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ B2 (50x70 cm) \/ White frame","offer_id":58232865194319,"sku":null,"price":117.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A1 (59.4 x 84.1  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58232865227087,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A1 (59.4 x 84.1  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58232865292623,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A1 (59.4 x 84.1  cm) \/ White frame","offer_id":58232865325391,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Canvas \/ XS Canvas (20x30cm) \/ -","offer_id":58232865849679,"sku":null,"price":30.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Canvas \/ Small Canvas (30x40cm) \/ -","offer_id":58232865882447,"sku":null,"price":50.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Canvas \/ B2 (50x70 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58232865947983,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Peaceful-Days_Poster_CompositorV1_1782873971028.jpg?v=1782874113"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.com\/en-nz\/collections\/giovanni-boldini.oembed","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
