The hand behind it
Franz Marc
Franz Marc painted animals, above all horses, in pure, unnatural colour: blue horses, yellow cows, red deer. He gave each colour a meaning, blue for the spiritual and masculine, yellow for gentle joy, red for heavy matter and violence, and he believed animals lived in a purer relation to nature than people. Born in Munich, he studied at the Munich Academy and visited Paris, where he discovered Van Gogh. In 1911 he founded Der Blaue Reiter (The Blue Rider) with Wassily Kandinsky, and his close friend August Macke joined them. His later works break the animals and landscape into prisms and facets, close to abstraction. He was killed at Verdun in 1916, aged 36. His work is in the Lenbachhaus in Munich, the Guggenheim in New York, the Kunstmuseum Basel and the Franz Marc Museum in Kochel am See. Blue Horse I (1911), in the Lenbachhaus, is one of his best known images: a young horse in deep blue against a landscape of red, yellow and green.

Questions
How is the finish priced?
The price you see is the painting at the size you chose, in the finish you chose, and it updates as you change either. Rolled arrives in a protective tube, ready for local framing. Stretched arrives on wooden bars, ready to hang. Framed arrives in its frame, ready to hang. Stretched and framed go up to 60 × 90 cm (24 × 36 in); larger paintings travel rolled.
How long does it take?
Painting begins after you order and takes 3 to 4 weeks, including drying and the photo you approve. Delivery then takes 4 to 10 working days to most countries. More on delivery times.
Will it look exactly like the original?
It is painted by a person, so no. Brushwork varies between copies, which is the difference between a painting and a poster.
What if I do not like it?
Ninety days from delivery, full refund.
Can I get Yellow Cow in a different size or shape?
Yes. Yellow Cow is painted to the size you want, in the original’s proportions, or adapted to another shape on request. Stretched and framed go up to 60 x 90 cm (24 x 36 in). The original measures 140.5 x 189.2 cm (55.3 x 74.5 in).
