Questions
The canvas
Bare or framed?
Bare is stretched cotton canvas: the colours wrap around the edges and it hangs as it is. Framed is a wooden float frame, black or white, holding the canvas free of the wood with a fine shadow gap, printed on recycled canvas. The two come in different sizes because different workshops make them.
Is the weather really the weather of that day?
When there is a record, yes. Otherwise we use the typical weather of that place in that season, marked under the canvas as a seasonal estimate.
Can I choose a date in the future, like a wedding?
Yes. The hours of light and the moon are already known; the weather is not, so the colours use the seasonal average. After the day, you can order it again with the real sky.
Does the time of day matter?
No. A canvas holds the whole day, from its light to its night, not a single moment.
What is written on it?
The date and, below it, the place with its coordinates, small and centred at the foot. You choose the lettering, or none at all.
My village is not there.
We know every town in the world with more than a thousand people. If yours is missing, type the one nearby: a few kilometres away, the light is the same.
Order and delivery
How long does it take?
Each canvas is printed after you order, usually within a few working days, then shipped. You get a tracking link when it leaves the workshop.
Where do you ship?
Most of Europe, the United Kingdom, North America, Australia, New Zealand and Japan, printed as close as possible to the delivery address.
Can I send it as a gift?
Yes. Enter the recipient's address at checkout. No prices or invoices go in the parcel.
Can I return it?
A canvas is made to order, so it cannot be returned for a change of mind. If it arrives damaged, faulty or wrong, send us a photo and we reprint or refund it.
