Created between 1935 and 1942 as part of the landmark Index of American Design, Hal Blakeley’s 'Doll - Lilla Rosella Hatch' stands as a masterclass in Classical Realism. This meticulous rendering documents a historic American doll, capturing the delicate textures of its textile garments and hand-painted features with architectural precision. The work serves as both a vital historical record and a profound study of material culture from the early 20th century. To preserve the integrity of Blakeley's composition, every format—including our premium canvas—is finished with the same clean white gallery border. This refined, gallery-ready presentation floats the artwork in standard proportions with absolutely no cropping, ensuring the archival image is presented exactly as the artist intended.
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.
