Details
A stunning reproduction of Unloading the Mail by Reginald Marsh for the discerning art collector. From our carefully curated range of gallery quality canvas reproductions of famous paintings.
Unloading the Mail was commissioned by the Works Progress Administration and was located at Ariel Rios Federal Building, Washington, D.C.
Unloading the Mail emphasizes the international communication allowed by the exchange of mail. Marsh was inspired by his visits to RMS Berengaria docked in New York harbor. The ship was one of the largest in the Cunard Line, a transatlantic shipping company dating back over a century, which brought mail to American shores from around the globe. It is clear from his sketches that Marsh closely observed the exterior of the ship, but in the mural he focused on the activities that occurred in the harbor boat. Mailbags from France, Austria, Sweden, Great Britain, Italy, Switzerland, and India are being transferred from the ocean liner onto a harbor boat that will take the cargo to shore for distribution. The recently enhanced New York skyline can be glimpsed out the window on the left and, in the mural's lower left corner, a man takes careful note of the mail being received.
These fine art giclee prints are available in a range of sizes with choice of framing:
- rolled canvas with extra white border (you can then have this stretched and framed locally)
- gallery wrapped canvas panels ready to hang - no frame needed as the image is mirror printed on all 4 edges
- stretched canvas panels expertly framed in ornate silver or gold solid wood frames
All frames are made from responsibly sourced wood and are made in our Nottinghamshire workshop.
We use the highest quality heavyweight, seedless cotton rich canvas and the latest wide format giclee printers with a print resolution of 1200dpi to make every nuance, shadow and detail (including age related patina, like craquelure) as fine and detailed as the original.
