Bringing History to Life: Johann Jakob Frey’s View of Rome from Monte Mario Recreated on Canvas

A Commission with Timeless Appeal

When Benjamin Chauvier approached us with a request to recreate Johann Jakob Frey’s masterpiece View of Rome from Monte Mario, our team at Jubilee Framers saw an opportunity to bring 19th-century European art into the present day. This celebrated painting captures a sweeping panorama of Rome, complete with the iconic umbrella pines and warm Mediterranean light that define Frey’s style.

Premium Canvas Printing on Ilford Gloss

To achieve the finest reproduction quality, we printed the file on Ilford Gloss Canvas. This professional-grade material enhances colour vibrancy, tonal depth, and fine detail. The gloss finish reflects the luminous quality of Frey’s original oil painting, ensuring that every brushstroke and colour transition stands out with clarity and richness.

Expert Mounting and Finishing

Once the canvas was printed, our specialists mounted it with precision to ensure a smooth, lasting finish. This process not only protects the artwork but also gives it the look and feel of a traditional hand-painted canvas, ideal for display in any setting.

Classic Ornate Framing

To complement the grandeur of Frey’s composition, the work was placed in a hand-finished ornate frame. The gilded detailing and deep profile echo the period style of the 19th century, creating a presentation that is both authentic and striking. The result is a framed artwork that feels at home in both classical interiors and modern spaces with a taste for history.
