    try them, they claim to be the world's larget poster and print store. if they don't have something on their site i'm sure they could get it from somewhere.

    try both links, i've never gone through them myself, but a friend of mine got a 36x24 of van gohs starry night for $8. no idea what shipping and handling is, but shouldnt be too bad.

    Delacroix.....and Claude Monet were great.....

    Is there any art which you feel isn't art and why?

    Some of the present Conceptual art is a load of -- - - -.

    I went to an exhibition this summer of Riopelles work. His early works are exhilirating. Especially the one titled "the circus".

    I also love Picasso especially "Guernica".

    I cant help but also mention the sistine chapel also.

    *Is online art purchasing SAFE?*

    *Is online art purchasing SAFE?*

    I am curious to know if anyone has ever purchased a fine art REPRODUCTION on the net successfully i.e. the painting actually looked close to the original work; you were not ripped off by the online vendor etc

    I'm considering purchasing a particular oil reproduction from www.inter-art.com as they are the only place in the world, it seems, who can provide the piece of art I am searching for.

    Has anyone here dealt with "inter-art" before?

    I'd be interested to hear....
