About this work

Artist: Robert Delaunay (1885–1941)
Year: 1924
Medium: Oil on canvas
Original size: 184 × 174 cm
Collection: Dallas Museum of Art
Movement: Orphism

The Eiffel Tower rises in orange, red and yellow girders from the lower right, tilted across the canvas, while around its base the lawns, paths and pools of the Champ de Mars are laid out in flat curving shapes of green, blue and pink, as if seen from the air. Delaunay painted it in 1924, returning to the subject that had made his name between 1909 and 1912, when he painted the tower shattered into fragments. The later version is calmer and brighter, closer to an aerial view, and it uses the lighter colour of his work in the 1920s. The tower remained for him a symbol of modern Paris and of the new age of engineering and flight, the same theme as his Homage to Blériot. The painting is in the Dallas Museum of Art.

This exhibition-poster edition shows the whole work beneath original typography set in-house. The original is in the public domain.

Where it works

An orange and red Eiffel Tower tilting over green lawns and blue pools, for a living room, child's room or hallway at 24×36 in natural wood. A warm white, sand or soft green wall; it pairs with Homage to Blériot.

Size. We'd hang this one at 24×36. Prints at 12×18, 16×24, 24×36 in — 12×18 for a shelf, desk or a gallery-wall grid; 16×24 above a desk, console or in a hallway; 24×36 as the statement piece above a sofa or bed.

Framing. Exhibition posters sit best in a slim black frame with no mat — the typeset margin is the mat.

Pairing. Pairs as a set of three with other famous painting prints (10% off three or more).

Is this the whole painting, or a crop?

The whole work, uncropped. The exhibition-poster edition sets the complete image above typography designed in-house.

Is Eiffel Tower in the public domain?

Yes. Robert Delaunay (1885–1941) died more than 70 years ago and the work was published before 1929, so the painting itself is public domain. This print is a reproduction made from a high-resolution scan of the original, which is held by Dallas Museum of Art.

What is it printed on?

Heavyweight matte fine-art paper with pigment inks, made to order in 12×18, 16×24 and 24×36 inches; every size is also offered framed in black or natural wood, with plexiglass and no mat. Colours are matched to the scan, not brightened.

When was Eiffel Tower painted, and in what medium?

Eiffel Tower dates from 1924 and was made in oil on canvas; the original measures 184 × 174 cm.

What size works above a sofa or bed?

Across a three-seat sofa or a queen bed, 24×36 is the size that reads as one statement piece; 16×24 suits a narrower wall or a pair. For Eiffel Tower we'd choose 24×36.
