Art Historian's Take
Max Blakesberg Studios — "Catching Air". This photograph stands as a compelling example of contemporary action photography, a genre that emerged in the late 20th century as a response to the increasing popularity of extreme sports and the demand for dynamic visual narratives. The image masterfully captures a moment of peak athletic performance, utilizing a high shutter speed to freeze the snowboarder in mid-air, creating a sense of both stillness and immense energy. Compositionally, the subject is placed asymmetrically, drawing the viewer's eye across the frame towards the expansive, softly focused mountain range in the background. This use of negative space emphasizes the scale of the environment and the isolation of the individual, a technique that echoes the tradition of landscape painting but with a distinctly modern, kinetic twist. The color palette is dominated by a muted, cool-toned atmosphere, with the crisp blue of the snowboarder's jacket serving as a strategic point of contrast that immediately anchors the viewer's gaze. This deliberate use of color and composition elevates the photograph beyond a mere documentation of an event, transforming it into a powerful visual statement about the relationship between human endeavor and the natural world. The work's interpretive significance lies in its ability to convey a profound sense of freedom and exhilaration, capturing a fleeting instant of perfect balance and motion that resonates with contemporary ideals of adventure and personal achievement.

Great quality prints

I took a chance and ordered and I’m glad I did. The prints arrived quickly and were well packaged, no damage. The colors and quality of paper look better than expected. I’m very satisfied and would order again. Thank you for great customer service.

Love the artwork

The colors are great for our room. We needed something with the dark teal color. Love the artwork. The artwork however was almost ruined. The delivery person put it out on front stoop in the pouring rain. I would suggest that Decorus put the tube into sealed plastic before inserting into the shipping box.

Hi Deborah,

Thank you for the feedback, we really appreciate it—and I’m glad to hear the artwork and colors worked well for your space.

I’m sorry to hear about the delivery experience, that’s always frustrating when carriers leave packages exposed like that.

Since your order and your feedback, we took a big look at how we were packaging prints and ran with your feedback. Since the end of last year we all prints are now rolled and placed inside a protective plastic sleeve before going into the tube, which is then placed in the box, which helps prevent issues like moisture exposure during transit.

We appreciate you calling that out, it’s exactly the kind of feedback that helps us improve.

Cheers,
Shane

FAQ, shipping, and expectation setting

High-converting pages remove uncertainty before it becomes a support ticket.

How will my print arrive?

Your print arrives unframed and unstretched, rolled in a protective tube. No frame, no stretcher bars, no mounting -- just the printed material. You choose how to finish it.

Does this come framed or stretched?

No. Every print ships unframed and unstretched, rolled in a tube. This is the print only -- you take it to a local frame shop, stretch it yourself, or have your designer install it however you like.

Does your canvas prints come with a bleed for stretching?

Yes, by default all Canvas Prints come standard with a 3" mirrored bleed.

Do you produce this yourselves?

Yes. Every print is produced in-house at our studio in Sarasota, Florida.

What is the difference between materials?

Poster is smooth and cost-efficient, fine art is the most elevated paper choice with rich detail, and canvas adds textural softness and painterly depth. All three ship unframed and unstretched.

Do you do custom sizes?

Yes, we do custom sizes. Please send your part number and the custom size and substrate you are looking to have printed and we can quote you the price or build you a draft order. Please send inquiries to info@decorus.art

Do you modify or crop images?

Do you need us to alter an image ratio, artist signature, change color, or other image manipulation? There is a flat $25 design fee. If the image ratio is staying the same and you just need a size not listed, please email us at info@decorus.art or tell us in chat and we can add that option to our website. There is no charge for the same ratio in a size not listed.

What is your return policy?

All sales are final due to the nature of print on demand. However, we do accept returns in cases of manufacturing defects or delivery of the wrong item. Please contact us immediately if you receive a defective or incorrect item.
