The Grand Dock at Le Havre painting was created in 1872 by a French painter Claude Monet, in Impressionism style. The original size of the painting is 61x81cm. The painting was painted in oil painting on canvas. This painting is currently collected in Hermitage, St. Petersburg, Russia.
From the State Hermitage Museum, Saint Petersburg, Russia:
In 1874, Monet travelled to his native Havre. The purpose of the trip was to prepare new works for the forthcoming exhibition. The present picture is one of the four paintings produced during his stay in Havre. Not without prompting from Japanese woodcuts, Monet "carved" his compositional structure. With this forest of masts and smokestacks, and the piles of barrels and bales of goods in the foreground, he conveys the sense of an extremely busy port, with ships departing for the ends of the earth as well as for Caen, the main city of the neighbouring département of Calvados. The juxtaposition of tall smokestacks of the ships in front with the masts of the fishing vessels behind reveals the onset of the industrial age, in spite of Monet's residual Romanticism. The picture shows a sunny day. Unfortunately, the weather changed and the painting remained not quite finished - the artist evidently did not want to spoil it by trying to complete it without consulting nature.

Hanging your painting:
Oil painting reproductions are dispatched both roll in tube and stretched canvas option. With canvas "roll in tube", un-stretched and un-framed, they come with plenty of excess canvas so they can be easily framed or stretched.
The most common way is to stretch your painting over wooden stretcher bars. The images below illustrate two ways this could be done with blank canvas sides or with painted sides.
You can either get your painting stretched or framed at a local framing store or stretch it yourself easily and cheaply by doing it yourself following our online guide.
