Artwork Description

View of Constantinople by Moonlight (Vue de Constantinople au clair de lune) – Ivan Aivazovsky, 1846

Framed Canvas Reproduction

This mesmerizing framed canvas reproduction of Ivan Aivazovsky’s View of Constantinople by Moonlight has undergone masterful digital restoration, revealing an intensity and richness often dulled in typical online versions. The process has achieved unparalleled luminosity and saturation in the fiery, ethereal light that dominates the scene, truly capturing Aivazovsky's dramatic brilliance. Furthermore, the restoration delivers crisper definition in the intricate city skyline and maritime details, allowing the viewer to appreciate every nuance of this romantic masterpiece with breathtaking clarity and depth.

Read full artwork description

In View of Constantinople by Moonlight, Ivan Aivazovsky, the preeminent master of maritime and Romantic painting, transports us to a scene of breathtaking grandeur and exotic allure. Painted in 1846, this iconic work is a testament to Aivazovsky's profound ability to capture the sublime power and beauty of light over water and landscape. Despite its title, the painting bathes the famed Ottoman capital in a radiant, almost otherworldly glow, evoking the mystical aura of a dramatic moonrise or an intensely atmospheric twilight.

The canvas is dominated by an incandescent light source – a brilliant orb that casts a shimmering path across the water, illuminating the silhouette of the majestic Hagia Sophia and its towering minarets along the historic peninsula. Aivazovsky's characteristic fluid brushwork brings the sea to life, with individual glints of light dancing on the waves, while elegant sailing vessels and small rowboats glide across its surface. The palette explodes with a symphony of deep oranges, passionate reds, and luminous golds, creating an intoxicatingly rich and dramatic atmosphere. This painting is a powerful evocation of wonder and the enduring mystique of the East, a true jewel of Romanticism.

This premium framed canvas reproduction powerfully conveys the dazzling light and profound drama of Aivazovsky's original, now with an enhanced clarity that brings every vibrant detail to life. It is an exceptional statement piece for any sophisticated living space, a focal point that offers both visual splendor and a captivating journey to a romanticized past, perfectly suiting classic, opulent, or even richly moody decor styles.

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.

Quality Assurance and Packing

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

We pack incredibly well, but parcel services can be hard on any package. If you receive your artwork with any damage, please let us know immediately and we'll help get the issue resolved.
