The Petite Creuse RiverClaude Monet, 1889 | Hand-painted oil reproduction or archival canvas print

The oil reproduction is painted on cotton canvas; the art print is printed on canvas. Rolled canvas arrives without a stretcher. Stretched canvas is mounted on a wooden stretcher frame; thin and thick frames are separate presentation choices.

On request, the studio provides a certificate for your hand-painted reproduction; it certifies the studio's work, not an original by the artist.

Dust gently with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid cleaning products, prolonged direct sunlight and damp conditions.

Choose a size and presentation in the options above. Both editions keep the original image proportions.

Both are offered. The primary edition of The Petite Creuse River is a hand-painted oil reproduction, brushed in real oils on artist-grade cotton canvas by a senior studio painter, so the brushwork and impasto are physically raised on the surface. A lower-priced archival canvas print of the same image is also available. You choose which on this page.

The Petite Creuse River dates from 1889. Monet (1840 to 1926) was a founder of Impressionism, working outdoors to capture changing light, and the original is oil on canvas.

The original is held by the Art Institute of Chicago. Monet died in 1926, so the work is in the public domain; our reproduction is painted from a documented public-domain image of it, and every piece ships with a certificate of authenticity describing it as a reproduction. View this painting at the Art Institute of Chicago.

There are 9 sizes offered for this work, from 30 × 42 cm · 12 × 17 in up to 65.9 × 93.1 cm · 25.9 × 36.7 in. Each size keeps the original painting's proportions, so nothing is cropped or stretched, and the largest size offered is limited by the resolution of the source image.

Choose rolled canvas, stretched on a wooden frame, or a thin or thick frame in your chosen finish. Every piece is made to order, hand inspected before it leaves the studio, and shipped free worldwide with a 30-day return guarantee.

It belongs to our Rivers, Villages & the Seine collection. Works in this group suit a living room, bedroom, hallway or study, and Monet's light-filled palette sits especially well on a wall that gets natural daylight. Size it so the painting reads as the focal point of the wall rather than competing with the furniture below it.
