Created in 1862 by Charles-Francois Daubigny, a foundational figure of the Barbizon School, 'The Fish Rejoice when the Cabin Boy Leaves' (Rejouissances de poissons au depart du mousse) represents a masterclass in 19th-century French printmaking. Originally part of Daubigny's celebrated 'Voyage en Bateau' portfolio, this whimsical etching captures the artist's intimate relationship with the River Seine, rendered with the spontaneous, atmospheric line-work that prefigured Impressionism. This archival reproduction honors the historical integrity of Daubigny's original plate, preserving every delicate hatch and tonal nuance. To ensure an authentic, museum-grade presentation, every format—including our canvas option—is finished with a consistent, clean white gallery border that elegantly floats the artwork in its original, uncropped proportions.
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.
