Izberite eno od naših vnaprej določenih velikosti, ki ustrezajo prvotnim proporcijam umetničkega dela.
Vnesite širino in višino, ki jih potrebujete za svoj okvir ali steno. Tiskanje se lahko le odreže, vendar ga ni mogoče narediti večjega od slike, zato format z drugačno obliko pomeni izgubo dela slike. Pred tiskanjem vam pošljemo digitalni predogled za potrditev. Slika, prikazana na tej strani, ne prikazuje dejanskega izrezka — le predogled to omogoča.
