Venus Italica Remix

Venus Italica (1819–1824) – Remix after Antonio Canova

In this remix of Venus Italica, classical beauty is confronted directly by the present. Canova’s idealised figure remains intact, but her timeless poise is disrupted by unmistakably modern elements: a phone held in hand, jewellery resting at the neck. These additions fracture the illusion of permanence, inserting contemporary self-awareness into a form long associated with distance and idealisation.

The result is a charged contrast between reverence and interruption. Placed within a modern interior, the work asserts itself as both elegant and confrontational — a classical image reactivated for a world shaped by immediacy, image, and constant presence.

Printed on premium 200 gsm fine art paper with a smooth matte finish, each piece is produced using archival pigment inks to deliver exceptional detail, rich colour, and lasting vibrancy. The glare-free finish enhances every artwork with a refined gallery-quality look.

Each print is professionally framed in a premium ready-to-hang wooden frame, crafted from responsibly sourced oak or ash and available in Natural Wood, Black, or White. The distinctive wood grain and elegant 20 mm profile create a timeless finish that complements both contemporary and classic interiors.

Crystal-clear, shatterproof plexiglass protects your artwork while offering the clarity of glass with added durability. Every piece arrives ready to hang with all required hardware included.

Produced using FSC-certified materials or equivalent wherever possible, every print reflects our commitment to exceptional craftsmanship, thoughtful design, and responsible sourcing.
