Created in 1908 by the master French printmaker and painter Auguste Lepère, 'Gathering of May-lily (La cueillette du muguet)' represents a pinnacle of late-classical wood engraving and landscape composition. Lepère, celebrated for his contribution to the revival of wood engraving in France, captures a fleeting, pastoral moment with remarkable architectural precision and tonal depth. This exquisite work is reproduced with meticulous fidelity to the original impression, preserving the delicate linework and atmospheric light of the early 20th century. Every format, including our premium canvas, is finished with a refined, gallery-ready presentation featuring a clean white gallery border that floats the artwork in standard proportions with no cropping, ensuring an elegant and historically faithful display.
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.
