Creation Process
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 Diego Rodriguez de Silva Velazquez 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.
Delivery
Once the painting Prince Baltasar Carlos as a Hunter 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.

Dress, with Two Dogs. The composition is learned, but simple. Restricted above by the branches of an oak tree, in the lower part of the canvas the figure of the prince and his arquebus is composed in an angular form directed upwards, while the big dog to the left closes off the figure and encircles it. This simple composition, however, is related to a double diagonal directed towards the background to the right and the tree trunk; and in correspondence there are all the levels of the distant landscape divided by valleys and slanting ridges. With a perceptible release, the figure of the prince arrests this falling movement, as if it had energetically overcome some opposing force. In this case, too, the work has the immediate appearance of splendid representation affirming the majesty of kings; but going beyond the required theme, the artist has made the painting into a locus of forces just subdued, of momentary equilibrium between intense pulls, expressing a tension shown throughout, from the format to the manner of painting, which is extraordinarily rich in flowing colour and contrasts. Also unusual is the way the figures are cut so that they seem taut and compressed at the same time. Abandoning traditional ideas of completeness, the artist crops them (see the dog on the right) as if they had been unexpectedly seen and recorded, a kind of vision that will be understood and taken up by the great French Impressionists, beginning with Manet, to express the instantaneous look of modernity.
