Framed Art Prints

The frame consists of a wooden cast with a simple structure, the idea being to favor the work rather than the frame. The methacrylate we use has been specially selected for its durability, transparency and strength, which guarantee a quality close to that of glass without risk of breakage during transport.

  • Fine Art Giclée printing is done on special paper

  • Printed artwork to the dimensions you choosed and will also include a white border.

  • We offer a choice of three finishes: natural wood, wood covered with a dark brown varnish and wood painted black.

About the monument

Cairn de Barnenez

Master builders. Two sorts of vaulting are used in these tombs, either flat stones as used in traditional dolmens or 'false' rounded domes made from a clever arrangement of small flat stones. The cairn was built in the Neolithic period (4500 to 3500 BC) when sedentary farming communities first emerged.

A 'rediscovered' site. It was identified as a "tumulus" (man-made earth mound) in 1850, but rediscovered in 1955 when it was being used as a quarry. From 1955 to 1968 excavation and consolidation work was carried out, and this enormous mound of stones regained its original appearance.
