Published in 1871, 'A Winter-Morning, - Shovelling Out' is a masterful wood engraving executed by George A. Avery after a design by the legendary American realist Winslow Homer. Capturing the stark, quiet labor of a post-blizzard morning, this piece exemplifies Homer's keen observation of everyday American life and his unmatched ability to render light, shadow, and atmosphere. This historic composition is presented in its complete, uncropped form, framed by a refined, gallery-ready presentation. Every format—including our archival canvas—is finished with the same clean white gallery border that elegantly floats the artwork in standard proportions, preserving the integrity of the original 19th-century engraving.
About Your Border
Every format — Fine Art Print, Framed Fine Art Print, Canvas and Framed Canvas — is supplied with a clean white gallery border framing the image on all four sides. The border is sized in proportion to the piece — approximately 10% of the shortest edge on each side (for example, about 3 cm of white border on a 30 cm-wide piece) — so the artwork keeps its standard proportions with no cropping and is ready to hang or frame straight away. If you prefer, you can also place your own mount/mat on top.
Would you like a different border width, a borderless full-bleed version, or any other adjustment? Just let us know within 24 hours of ordering and we'll tailor it for you at no extra cost.
