Fruit Jar, rendered by Paul Poffinbarger circa 1939, stands as a compelling testament to the American Classical realist tradition of the early twentieth century. Created under the auspices of the Index of American Design, this meticulous study documents the utilitarian beauty of early American material culture with architectural precision. Poffinbarger’s masterful handling of light and shadow elevates a simple glass vessel into a monumental study of transparency, form, and historical preservation. Every format of this archival reproduction is finished with a refined, gallery-ready presentation, featuring a clean white gallery border that floats the artwork in standard proportions with absolutely no cropping. This consistent border ensures the integrity of Poffinbarger's original composition is preserved across both paper and canvas mediums, offering an elegant, museum-grade aesthetic suitable for sophisticated architectural 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.
