Velg mellom våre forhåndsdefinerte størrelser som bevarer kunstverkets opprinnelige proporsjoner.
Skriv inn ønsket bredde og høyde for å tilpasse trykket til din ramme eller vegg. Et trykk kan kun beskjæres, aldri skaleres opp utover motivets opprinnelige størrelse, noe som betyr at et format med andre proporsjoner vil føre til tap av deler av bildet. Vi sender deg en digital mockup for godkjenning før vi starter trykkeprosessen. Bildet som vises på denne siden viser ikke den faktiske beskjæringen — det er kun mockuppen som viser dette.

Om kunstneren
A Life of Color and Glass
Józef Mehoffer arrived in the world in Ropczyce, Poland, in 1869, though his path to the easel was not immediate. Before he embraced the brush, he pursued legal studies, a direction that only shifted after a gift of paints revealed a different vocation. He sought formal training at the Academy of Fine Arts in Kraków under Władysław Łuszczkiewicz, later expanding his horizons through studies in Vienna and Paris at the Académie Colarossi. This period of wandering through Europe’s great art centers allowed him to absorb the diverse currents of his era.
His work became a bridge between the academic traditions of his teachers, such as Jan Matejko, and the emerging avant-garde. He moved with ease between easel painting and the monumental demands of decorative arts. Whether working on portraits, landscapes, or intricate book illustrations, Mehoffer sought a fusion of form and color. His style grew to include elements of Post- Impressionism and the Secession movement, often utilizing bold palettes and fluid lines that mirrored the organic spirit of Art Nouveau.
The Light of Fribourg
While his presence was felt throughout Poland, Mehoffer achieved significant recognition through his work in Switzerland. Between 1895 and 1936, he dedicated decades to a cycle of thirteen stained-glass compositions for the Cathedral of St. Nicholas in Fribourg. This undertaking required immense technical precision, as he treated the lead came not merely as a structural necessity but as an autonomous graphic line. He selected glass of varying thicknesses and textures, using silver stain and vitreous black to manipulate how light moved through the windows.
The success of these windows brought him international attention. At the 1900 Paris World's Fair, his window titled The Martyrs earned a gold medal. This period of his life saw him blending Polish folk motifs with the sophisticated aesthetics of European Art Nouveau. His ability to translate complex religious and symbolic themes into luminous glass remains a central part of his professional identity.
A Decorative Legacy
Mehoffer’s creative output was remarkably broad, refusing to be confined to a single medium. He was as much a designer of furniture, textiles, and posters as he was a painter of canvases. His hand could be found in the mosaics of the Armenian Cathedral in Lviv and the frescoes of Wawel Cathedral. In 1897, he helped found the society Sztuka, an organization that sought to assert the independence of Polish art from the influence of occupying powers.
In his later years, Mehoffer established a home and studio on Krupnicza Street in Kraków. This house, which he purchased in 1932, became a center for musical and literary gatherings, reflecting his role as a figure of the Polish intelligentsia. He lived through the profound shifts of the early twentieth century, continuing to work even during the hardships of the Second World War. When he passed away in Wadowice in 1946, he left behind a body of work that spanned the transition from nineteenth-century tradition to the modern decorative era.
