Garden of Love, c.1633 Peter Paul Rubens (1577-1640)

We create our paintings with museum quality and covering the highest academic standards. Once we get your order, it will be entirely hand-painted with oil on canvas. All the materials we use are the highest level, being totally artist graded painting materials and linen canvas.

We will add 1.6" (4 cm) additional blank canvas all over the painting for stretching.

High quality and detailing in every inch are time consuming. The reproduction of Peter Paul Rubens also needs time to dry in order to be completely ready for shipping, as this is crucial to not be damaged during transportation.
Based on the size, level of detail and complexity we need 8-9 weeks to complete the process.

In case the delivery date needs to be extended in time, or we are overloaded with requests, there will be an email sent to you sharing the new timelines of production and delivery.

TOPofART wants to remind you to keep patient, in order to get you the highest quality, being our mission to fulfill your expectations.

We not stretch and frame our oil paintings due to several reasons:
Painting reproduction is a high quality expensive product, which we cannot risk to damage by sending it being stretched.
Also, there are postal restrictions, regarding the size of the shipment.
Additionally, due to the dimensions of the stretched canvas, the shipment price may exceed the price of the product itself.

You can stretch and frame your painting in your local frame-shop.

Once the painting Garden of Love is ready and dry, it will be shipped to your delivery address. The canvas will be rolled-up in a secure postal tube.

We offer free shipping as well as paid express transportation services.

After adding your artwork to the shopping cart, you will be able to check the delivery price using the Estimate Shipping and Tax tool.

The paintings we create are only of museum quality. Our academy graduated artists will never allow a compromise in the quality and detail of the ordered painting. TOPofART do not work, and will never allow ourselves to work with low quality studios from the Far East. We are based in Europe, and quality is our highest priority.

The Garden of Love by Rubens Well known through prints and replicas, this composition is at the origin of all the conversations galantes of the 18th century. Opposite a park with trees, there is a Roman Baroque construction with groups of statuary and fountains, while cupids hover in the air - a few are on the ground, exercising persuasion. The composition is grouped to the left; has its focus in the centre and under the arch; and converges from the left with the descending figures, those at the fountain and the cupids bearing flowers. An excited and brilliant scene, teeming with incident, it is executed like a large sketch, with agile, twisting brushwork punctuated by luminous touches of opulent colour. It is a hymn to joy in life. This and the other canvases of the 60-year-old Flemish master represent the inspiration that powerfully imbued his art in its final phase.
