This Bath England canvas print features the ancient Roman Baths for which the city is so well known. During the age of Roman Britain, the site of Modern day bath was the site of a Roman settlement that centered around the springs that were sacred to the Celts. The Romans combined the Celtic god with Minerva and built a temple to Sulis Minerva between 60 and 70 AD. The Roman bathing complex built up around the temple over the next centuries. This included the Great Bath seen here. In its day this bath was covered by a barrel vaulted hall that reached a height of over 60 feet. For many visitors in ancient times, this would have been the largest covered space they'd seen.
Today everything from the column bases down is original Roman construction, but everything above was built during Victorian times when the bath was rediscovered. The Ancient Roman Baths are seen here with an atmospheric mist rising from the waters of the bath. It evokes a feeling of the mists of the centuries that have passed by here in the city of Bath in Somerset, England.
Have you visited the Ancient Roman Baths yourself? Or is your interest in this Bath England canvas print simply based on a love of all things Roman?

Canvas Prints - Product Information
Stretched canvas prints are a great choice for decorating your home or office. Canvas art is a classic choice that is at home in traditional and modern decor alike.
After the purchase of your canvas print, it is made to your order. The artwork is printed on an acid-free poly/cotton blend canvas. The use of archival inks and substrate means that your canvas art print should last a lifetime without fading or loss of color.
When ordering your print, you have a choice between glossy and matte finishes. While I ordinarily love matte finishes on prints, I do like the sheen that comes on glossy canvas prints. Ultimately I would suggest letting the amount of light in your space guide your choice. In a brightly lit environment, I would lean towards a matte finish to reduce the chance of glare.
There are three wrap styles to choose from for canvas prints. The mirrored wrap choice mirrors and extends the image to the sides of the canvas wrap (without losing any of the original artwork on the front). The majority of the time I would suggest this is the best choice. The other two options are a solid black wrap or white wrap. You can see a preview of each option when selecting wrap color.
After printing, the canvas is stretched over and secured to a wooden frame of 1.5" by 1.5" stretcher bars. The entire production process takes from 10 to 15 business days. Your artwork will arrive in sturdy packaging. The hanging wire will be attached and all hardware necessary to hang your canvas print will be included. Canvas prints are a great ready-to-hang option.
