Is the frame included?
It’s up to you. In 30 × 40 and 40 × 50 cm, the print can be delivered framed: black or natural wood frame, acrylic glazing, ready to hang. Unframed, it is also available in 50 × 70 cm, a standard size that is easy to frame.
Are these original paintings?
No. Each print is a fine art print of an oil-painting-style illustration, created digitally and then combined with the topographic map of the place.
Where do the maps come from?
The maps come from IGN (Institut national de l’information géographique et forestière), France’s national mapping agency. They are the real contour lines of the place shown.
What paper are the prints on?
EMA 200 gsm matte art paper: smooth and silky, with a crisp, elegant finish that does justice to both the colours of the illustration and the fine detail of the contour lines.
How long will my order take?
Prints are made to order and then shipped with tracking: allow 5 to 8 working days in France and 5 to 9 working days in the rest of the European Union. Full details are on the Shipping and Returns page.
How much is shipping?
In mainland France, tracked delivery is free, with no minimum order. In other European Union countries it costs €6.90 and is free on orders over €50. We do not yet ship to the United Kingdom, Switzerland or the rest of the world.
Can you create a print of a place that matters to me?
Yes, for a place in France: your chalet, a lake, a summit, a village, with the GPX route of a hike as an option. From €149. All the details and the request form are on the Custom print page.
Can I request a place that isn’t in the shop?
Yes, suggestions are very welcome: they help me choose the next prints. Write to me via the contact page.
Are you a shop, a mountain hut or a tourist office?
