ABOUT THE ARTWORK

"A Hot Day" is painting by David Davies, dated 1888.

A heat-filled landscape that conveys the atmosphere and bright stillness of an Australian summer.

On onlly.art this reproduction sits within the Australian Bushland Landscape collection. Painting · 1888 · medium: Painting. The work is associated with the Australian Bushland collection. The dry light and open country make the work a strong bushland and seasonal image.

About the period around 1888: Japanese prints reached Europe in large numbers and influenced many artists, while photography changed what painting needed to do. In the 1890s, colour lithography and Art Nouveau made the illustrated poster a celebrated art form.

On onlly.art "A Hot Day" is sold as a digital download (Digital JPEG + PDF files, 300 DPI). The files are delivered by email after payment, so nothing is shipped: you print locally, choosing the paper, size, and frame yourself. A landscape format suits wide, low wall spaces such as the stretch above a bed, mantel, or sideboard. Before printing, compare the proportions of the file with your frame so that nothing important is cropped. Matte and fine-art papers reduce glare in bright rooms, while glossy papers give stronger contrast and deeper blacks. Choosing a standard frame size and printing to fit it often saves the cost of custom framing. Screens and printers render colour differently, so a small test print is a sensible way to check tones before committing to a large size.
