The painting was inspired by Shakespeare’s Sonnet 55.
“Not marble, nor the gilded monuments
Of princes, shall outlive this powerful rhyme;
But you shall shine more bright in these contents
Than unswept stone besmear’d with sluttish time.
When wasteful war shall statues overturn,
And broils root out the work of masonry,
Nor Mars his sword nor war’s quick fire shall burn
The living record of your memory.
‘Gainst death and all-oblivious enmity
Shall you pace forth; your praise shall still find room
Even in the eyes of all posterity
That wear this world out to the ending doom.
So, till the judgment that yourself arise,
You live in this, and dwell in lover’s eyes.”

Shipping
Do you ship internationally?
Yes. Please contact us for a quote. Don’t forget to mention your country, zip code and particular artwork as prices may vary depending on the size, weight and location.
How long will my fine art purchase take to arrive?
The timeframes can vary. We will update you with the relevant information as soon as possible. The packages will be tracked.
Will my purchase look the same as the online image?
All works are reproduced as accurately as possible; however, a slight variation may occur between our website due to computer picture resolution and individual monitor settings on your computer screen, mobile device or tablet.
What should I do when receiving my purchase?
All items and packaging need to be inspected by the client within 48 hours of delivery and any concerns addressed in writing within this timeframe.
What about custom duties and taxes for international orders?
Items shipped internationally can be subject to customs duties and sales or Value Added Tax (VAT) set by the destination country. These fees are not calculated prior to customs clearance in that country and are in addition to the price and shipping cost you are charged when checking out. (VAT is typically included in the price of an item. If the seller says it isn’t included, we recommend you contact the local customs agency to verify the import charges.) To complete your purchase, you are required to acknowledge that any customs duties and taxes that apply are your responsibility.
