Portrait photo of David Meaux, a VAST photographer creating extremely high resolution photographs
David Meaux

Manarola is one of the most famous and photographed villages in Italy. It is one of the five villages in the northwestern Italian region of Liguria known collectively as Cinque Terre, or “five lands.” Together with their coastline and surrounding hills they form Cinque Terre National Park, which is a UNESCO World Heritage site.
After capturing the colors of the amazing sunset that had caused Manarola to glow in the waning sunlight of Manarola, Cinque Terre, Sunset, I stayed after most tourists and photographers had gone on to do other things, for I knew that the beginning of dusk would create a different mood of the village. As the warm colors of the sun faded into the indigo of blue hour and then the dark of night, a violet hue settled over the village complemented by the artificial lighting that turned on as life within the village slowed and people headed into restaurants and their homes. The people and fishing boats stayed protected in their cliffside haven while waves continued to crash upon the shore, breaking against the ragged cliffs. Life slowed for the evening, waiting for the return the next day of the warm, golden Italian sun that would rise over the hills behind them.

Canvas print

Our ready-to-hang canvas prints are created using a specialty printer that carefully lays pigment inks down onto archival-quality fine art canvas material. The canvas is then stretched around a 1.5-inch-deep wood support structure to provide depth and elegance. Our canvas material has a delightfully matte finish that looks spectacular in any lighting conditions while retaining maximum vibrancy and contrast. Click here to learn more.

Produced using a specialty, large-format fine art printer operating at 300ppi resolution—the gold standard for sharpness
Printed onto heavyweight, 100% acid-free fine art canvas to preserve color-accuracy and longevity
Created using materials and methods that exceed the rigorous technical standards required to achieve the prized "giclée" industry rating
Designed to meet the most demanding standards for color-permanence set by leading museums
Handmade by award-winning master printmakers with over 4 decades of experience
Optionally accompanied by your choice of elegant floater frame available in a variety of trims

VAST Print™

A VAST Print™ represents the pinnacle of the photographic medium. Each print is a true photograph created specifically for you using light-sensitive paper exposed in a darkroom with the industry's highest precision exposure technique. Your print is then sealed with a shine-enhancing protective glossy coating*, adhered to a sturdy aluminum composite backing, and finished in one of two ready-to-hang formats:

  • Frameless floating display: A hidden mounting brace on the rear gracefully "floats" the print off the wall for a sleek, modern look.
  • Framed display: The print is mounted inside one of our handcrafted 100% wood frames with a decorative separation between the print and the frame so that the print appears to be floating within the frame, providing depth and elegance to the finished photo.

*Note: a non-glossy, satin matte coating is alternatively available on request.
