About This Image
1957 Chevy Tail Fin – Classic Car Canvas Print by Mark Tisdale.
This classic car canvas print features the very distinctive tail fin of a 1957 Chevy. When it comes to classic cars, there’s no question that a 57 Chevy is something of a holy grail. Those dramatic tail fins are absolutely a part of Americana. Those fins speak of the jet age and the boundless optimism of 1950’s America.
And for me, there was a personal reason to tackle a 57 Chevy. My grandfather owned one. Granted, I never saw it. In fact, he had passed away before I was born, but that car was fondly remembered and spoken of by my Mom for years to come. As a rural mail carrier, he actually traded cars every two years. So the fact his 1957 Chevy was well remembered among the many cars he had shows how special it was.
The fact he owned was is the limit of the homage. He owned a four door and the color was not blue. But this artwork was more about the mood and the times than anything else. I feel like this scene outside a diner at night speaks to Fifties Americana, don’t you? Assuming you’re of a certain age does it take you back? Or if, like me, you’re younger does it fit what you know of the era? I hope you’ll share your thoughts.
Likewise keep in mind if you like this classic car canvas print but are looking for a different subject, I’m happy to take suggestions. Those suggestions are often inspiration for new work. So let me know!
Canvas Prints – Product Information
Stretched canvas prints are a great choice for decorating your home or office. Canvas art is a classic choice that is at home in traditional and modern decor alike.
After the purchase of your canvas print, it is made to your order. The artwork is printed on an acid-free poly/cotton blend canvas. The use of archival inks and substrate means that your canvas art print should last a lifetime without fading or loss of color.
When ordering your print, you have a choice between glossy and matte finishes. While I ordinarily love matte finishes on prints, I do like the sheen that comes on glossy canvas prints. Ultimately I would suggest letting the amount of light in your space guide your choice. In a brightly lit environment, I would lean towards a matte finish to reduce the chance of glare.
There are three wrap styles to choose from for canvas prints. The mirrored wrap choice mirrors and extends the image to the sides of the canvas wrap (without losing any of the original artwork on the front). The majority of the time I would suggest this is the best choice. The other two options are a solid black wrap or white wrap. You can see a preview of each option when selecting wrap color.
After printing, the canvas is stretched over and secured to a wooden frame of 1.5″ by 1.5″ stretcher bars. The entire production process takes from 5 to 7 business days. Your artwork will arrive in sturdy packaging. The hanging wire will be attached and all hardware necessary to hang your canvas print will be included. Canvas prints are a great ready-to-hang option.
