ARTLIA's art prints are produced according to standardized paper and canvas formats.
Depending on the aspect ratio of the original artwork and the chosen format, it may happen that the edges of the image are slightly adjusted to achieve a harmonious overall effect and high print quality.
For canvas prints, the ARTLIA team ensures that the main motif is placed as fully as possible on the front side. The side frame areas are continued in color and style to match the original image.
This is a deliberate and common production step with which the ARTLIA team ensures the aesthetic quality of each artwork.

Sun, Moon, and Five Peaks, in Korean Irworobongdo (일월오봉도)
This Korean artwork features the traditional motif “Sun, Moon, and Five Peaks” (Irworobongdo, 일월오봉도), an important symbol of the royal art of the Joseon Dynasty (1392–1910).
The five mountain peaks, red sun, white moon, waterfalls, and pine trees symbolize cosmic order, royal authority, and the continuity of the dynasty.
The one-panel standing screen with painted silk fabric in a wooden frame differs from the classic Korean folding screen. The motif was traditionally used behind the royal throne and in connection with royal portraits.
Two rollers on the upper frame and historical records from 1901 and 1902 suggest that it may have been used in the production and storage of royal portraits.
The standing screen is an impressive example of Korean court art, royal iconography, and the craftsmanship of the Joseon period.
