Dating to approximately 1310, 'Saint Peter' is a seminal masterpiece attributed to the Florentine painter Grifo di Tancredi, active during the transition from the late Byzantine style to the early Renaissance. This striking depiction of the Apostle Peter showcases the artist's mastery of tempera and gold leaf, characterized by linear precision and solemn, architectural gravity. The figure's expressive gaze and stylized drapery reflect the evolving theological and artistic narratives of early 14th-century Tuscany. To preserve the historical integrity and composition of this classical work, every format—including our premium canvas—is finished with a consistent, clean white gallery border. This refined, gallery-ready presentation floats the artwork in standard proportions, ensuring no cropping of the original masterpiece occurs.
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.
