Created in 1965, 'Crab and Flowers' by Arthur L. Flory represents a masterful synthesis of mid-century American printmaking and classical Japanese design principles. Flory, an influential artist and educator who spent significant time teaching lithography in Japan, brings an architectural precision to this organic composition. The work juxtaposes the sharp, structural form of the crab with the delicate, fluid lines of botanical elements, rendered in a sophisticated, muted palette. To preserve the historical integrity of Flory's original composition, every format—including our premium canvas—is finished with a consistent clean white gallery border that floats the artwork in standard proportions with no cropping, ensuring a refined, gallery-ready presentation.
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.
