Collector Resources
Buying a large-format piece for your wall is a bigger decision than picking a print off a shelf. This page covers the questions collectors ask most: how to size a piece for a room, what the material choices actually mean, how framing and finishing work, and how to look after the piece once it's home.
Choosing A Size
Scale is the single biggest factor in how a landscape photograph reads on a wall. A piece that looks striking online can feel small once it's hung, because screens don't communicate real dimension. As a starting point:
- Above a sofa or console: aim for roughly 60–75% of the furniture's width, so the piece anchors it rather than floating above it.
- Stairwells and double-height walls: these spaces can usually take a size larger than instinct suggests — this is where panoramic and vertical panoramic formats work particularly well.
- Offices and smaller rooms: a single large piece on the main sightline usually reads better than two or three smaller ones competing for attention.
If you're not sure, the simplest approach is to tape the piece's dimensions out on the wall with painter's tape before deciding — or send Alexander a photo of the wall and its measurements through the contact page; sizing guidance is part of working directly with the artist rather than buying off a fixed catalog.
Fujiflex Vs. Lumachrome Acrylic
Both are archival, professional-grade finishes — the right one depends on the look and the room.
Fujiflex Paper
An ultra-high-gloss photographic paper with a bright, saturated finish. It's the traditional fine art photography presentation — often paired with a custom frame and mat.
Well suited to rooms with controlled lighting, and to collectors who want a more classic, gallery-print look.
Lumachrome TruLife Acrylic
The image is face-mounted behind acrylic, which adds real depth and a glow to color and light — closer to how the scene looked in person than a flat print.
A frameless, contemporary presentation that reads as a single clean object on the wall — popular for larger statement pieces.
See full specifications and example pieces on the Lumachrome TruLife page.
Framing & Finishing
Fujiflex prints are typically custom framed and matted to suit the piece and the room; Lumachrome acrylic pieces are face-mounted and finished to hang without an additional frame. Every piece is made to order, so framing and finishing are discussed and confirmed before production — full options are on the Custom Frames page.
Authenticity & Editions
Every piece is personally signed by Alexander Vershinin and produced as a limited edition — nothing is a mass-produced reprint from stock. Because each order is made specifically for the collector, there is no held inventory of finished pieces; production begins once a size, material, and finish are confirmed.
Caring For Your Print
- Fujiflex, framed prints: keep out of direct, prolonged sunlight to protect color over the long term, and avoid hanging near direct heat sources such as radiators or fireplaces.
- Lumachrome acrylic: dust with a clean, dry microfiber cloth. If needed, use a small amount of water on the cloth rather than household glass or ammonia-based cleaners, which can dull the acrylic surface over time.
- Handling: lift and carry framed or face-mounted pieces from the frame or edges, not the print surface.
Shipping
Pieces ship worldwide, packed specifically for the size and material of the order. Because each piece is made to order, production and shipping timelines depend on size, finish, and destination — exact timing is confirmed when an order is placed.
