Framed Canvas

Giclee Print on Fine Art Giclee canvas mounted on a wooden frame and framed. For greater compliance with the original work, the print will cover the entire chosen format, the part of the canvas covering the sides of the frame remaining white. The frame consists of a wooden frame with a simple structure, the idea being to favor the work rather than the frame. We offer a choice of three finishes: natural wood, wood covered with a dark brown varnish and wood painted black. The reproduction will be shipped in protective packaging to be delivered in perfect condition.

About the monument

Château de Voltaire à Ferney

A complete project. Voltaire rebuilt the castle entirely from 1758. He landscaped the grounds and didn't shrink from getting his hands dirty himself. Alternately town planner, entrepreneur, and patron of the arts, Voltaire transformed the town of Ferney along the lines laid out in Candide (1759) and summed up in his famous maxim: "il faut cultiver notre jardin" (we must tend to our garden).

A busy social and literary life. Voltaire continued his fight against intolerance from Ferney, writing some 6,000 letters as well as his Philosophical Dictionary, his Treaty on Tolerance, and several tragedies. He staged dramatic works at the estate and received "enlightened" guests from all over Europe. The French state acquired the property in 1999.
