Artwork Description

The Garden Of Opportunity by Evelyn De Morgan, 1901

Framed Canvas Art

**The Garden Of Opportunity** unfolds across a richly symbolic landscape where four female figures embody the pivotal moments of choice and consequence. De Morgan bathes the scene in warm golden light that illuminates the flowing drapery of each allegorical figure; the leftmost woman in pale yellow-green gestures toward distant prospects, while two central figures in deep burgundy and violet converse beneath an azure sky dotted with white clouds. The composition divides between the pastoral left side with its verdant hills and classical architecture, and the right side where a golden-robed figure stands beside an ornate marble balustrade decorated with carved relief panels. This painting demonstrates **De Morgan's mastery of symbolic narrative**, combining her characteristic jewel-toned palette with precise draftsmanship that renders each fold of fabric and architectural detail with remarkable clarity.

Read full artwork description

Painted in 1901 during the height of De Morgan's artistic maturity, this work emerged from her deep engagement with Pre-Raphaelite principles and her unique interpretation of Symbolist themes. As one of the few successful female painters of the Victorian era, De Morgan had established herself as a master of allegorical subjects that explored philosophical and spiritual themes through classical mythology and contemporary moral concerns. The painting reflects her collaboration with her husband, ceramicist William De Morgan, and their shared interest in medieval and Renaissance artistic traditions. This period marked De Morgan's most confident handling of complex multi-figure compositions, where she successfully balanced narrative clarity with decorative richness, creating works that spoke to educated Victorian audiences seeking art that combined beauty with moral instruction.

Our archival giclee process captures the subtle gradations in De Morgan's carefully modulated flesh tones and the lustrous quality of her silk and velvet draperies, preserving details that mass-produced prints lose: the delicate modeling of each figure's features, the intricate carved details of the marble balustrade, and the atmospheric perspective that carries the eye from foreground figures to distant hilltop towns. The source image has been digitally restored from high-resolution museum scans, recovering the full spectrum from the deepest shadow passages in the burgundy robes to the luminous highlights on the golden fabric and pale marble surfaces. Our composite frame, finished in warm gilt tones, complements the painting's rich earth colors and classical architectural elements, creating a presentation worthy of De Morgan's sophisticated artistic vision.

Digital Restoration

Many older painting have lost their vibrancy with age as varnish yellows and dirt accumulates. Our artisans use the latest in digital technology to restore these masterpieces to their former glory.

Fredrix Canvas with HP Latex Inks

All of our reproductions are printed on archival quality Fredrix poly/cotton blend canvas for longevity and vibrancy. This canvas has a more traditional look and feel compared to the 100% polyester "canvas" used by some competitors .

HP Latex Inks are non toxic and environmentally friendly compared to harsh, solvent based inks while still providing excellent range throughout the color gamut.

Poplar Stretcher Frame

Our stretcher frame is kiln dried Poplar that has been sustainably harvested from sawmills in Ohio, Kentucky, and West Virginia and is Appalachian Hardwood Verified Sustainable by the AMHI.

This is the best stretcher frame available and is far superior to the MDF and imported pine used by many competitors.

Premium Resin Frames

We exclusively use premium resin frames imported from South Korea, the world leader in this frame type. See The Frame for more information.

Frames are cut by our craftsmen on industry standard 14" Pistorious Double Miter saws for perfect cuts every time.

Perfect Corners

Frames and stretcher frames are joined carefully and precisely by our trained staff. We use only the finest in programmable, Italian joiners for all of our frames.

Hand Stretched

Our canvases are stretched by hand for an authentic touch of Old World craftsmanship.

Hand Embellished

Our artisans add clear gesso embellishments over the entire canvas to bring an unrivaled level of authenticity to our reproductions. The embellishments add a depth and dimensionality that is breathtaking.

Assembled With Pride

The stretched and embellished canvas is carefully secured to the frame with furniture grade staples and plywood corner gussets are added to the frame for additional structural integrity.

Dust Cover and Wire Hardware

A kraft paper dust cover is added to the back of the artwork for a clean, professional finish and a stout wire and hanging hardware is installed for ease of hanging when you receive your Canvas Classics painting.

Your artwork is given a final quality assurance check before it is professionally packed for shipping to its new forever home.
