Through White Water
A yacht with a pale deckhouse ploughs through high white breakers; several sails stand steep against a night-blue sky. The spray is painted in quick, broad strokes, the masts as fine red-brown lines.
Fine art reproduction after the original by Peter Wirth (1951–2018) — Acrylic on cotton canvas, original 39⅜ × 47¼ in (100 × 120 cm), catalogue W.2131.
Printed to order on Hahnemühle German Etching, 310 gsm, with pigment inks, in the United States. Every sheet carries a white border and the artwork sits inside it at its own proportions, so nothing is cropped to fit the paper.
Offered as a sheet in 8 × 10, 11 × 14, 12 × 16 and 16 × 20 inches, and framed in 11 × 14, 12 × 16 and 16 × 20 inches — slim black wood, acrylic glazing, no mat. Ships with a certificate naming the work, the original and your print, and carrying a registration number recorded in our archive.
Peter Wirth painted the sailing pictures as a group of their own: yachts under full sail, in haze, in spray and at night. In the catalogue of works they stand close together.
Made to order. Free shipping within the United States.
Open edition. These prints are not numbered and not capped. The sheet is not signed by hand; where the artist's name appears on it, it is a printed facsimile applied by the estate. The registration number on the certificate identifies your copy in our archive; it is not an edition number. This is a posthumous edition: the original work dates from the artist's lifetime; the print is made after his death in 2018.

Size Guide
8 × 10 in (20 × 25 cm)
11 × 14 in (28 × 36 cm)
12 × 16 in (30 × 41 cm)
16 × 20 in (41 × 51 cm)
18 × 24 in (46 × 61 cm)
These are sheet sizes. Every unframed print carries a white border, and the artwork sits inside it at its own proportions — so the image is smaller than the sheet, and nothing is cropped to fit.
The size guide shows all five to scale against a sofa.
Shipping
Made to order and printed in the United States. Free shipping within the United States, on every order and in every size.
Orders usually leave the atelier within one to five working days. Delivery within the continental United States normally takes a further five to ten working days.
Framed works take longer to make than unframed ones, because the frame is assembled around the print. Sets ship together in one parcel.

Before you buy
See it on your wall
Upload a photo of your wall and tell us how wide the photographed section is. The sheet then appears true to scale in the size you choose. Your photo stays on your device and is never uploaded.
Add a photo of your wall
Drag the work where you want it — with the mouse, your finger or the arrow keys.
The sheet dimensions are accurate. The perspective and lighting of your photo are not calculated, so this is a close approximation, not a rendering.
Your photo does not leave your device. It is sent neither to us nor to anyone else, and is stored nowhere.
