Engraved by Giovanni Antonio da Brescia after a composition by the Renaissance master Andrea Mantegna around 1500–1504, 'The Entombment with Three Birds' is a monumental testament to classical humanism and early Italian printmaking. This dramatic scene captures the solemnity of the deposition with architectural precision, utilizing dense, parallel hatching to render sculptural form and deep emotional gravitas. To preserve the integrity of this historic composition, every format—including our canvas presentation—is finished with a consistent, clean white gallery border that floats the artwork in standard proportions with no cropping. This refined, gallery-ready presentation ensures the engraving's intricate linework and historical margins are displayed exactly as intended, offering an elegant, museum-quality aesthetic for modern interiors.
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.
