The reproduction of Frederic Edwin Church also needs time to dry in order to be completely ready for shipping, as this is crucial to not be damaged during transportation.īased on the size, level of detail and complexity we need 8-9 weeks to complete the process. High quality and detailing in every inch are time consuming. We will add 1.6" (4 cm) additional blank canvas all over the painting for stretching.
