- Do the paintings come framed?
- No, we send the paintings rolled in a hard plastic tube for maximum protection. To ship frames would also be very expensive and there is more chance of damage. We do have a selection of small paintings with antique frames.

Product description
"Thank you very much Erik. I hung my crab in the kitchen and it looks great. Very impressed with the brushstrokes. Just like Van Gogh's painting I saw in the Van Gogh Museum." - Matt Diemens
It was probably one of those days when Vincent could not go out to paint because of bad weather. Nevertheless, he had a burning desire to paint something every day. There is one more painting that he made in 1889 which has two crabs. One of them is lying on its back.
The Crab on its Back replica in oil on canvas
Van Gogh Studio is located in Amsterdam, near the Van Gogh museum where we can study the original works. Our paintings are all painted in oil on canvas by mainly Dutch artists who have studied Van Gogh's technique, including brushstrokes, color mixing, atmosphere and the rhythm of painting.Techniques
Complimentary colors are used to paint the picture. There are passages of great delicacy and then there are areas of luscious thick paint. It is a humble object that you find every day; but the painting has truly transformed it into something monumental.Inspiration
Van Gogh was probably inspired by a Japanese print of a crab that he saw in Le Japon Artistique, a magazine that was sent to him by his brother Theo Van Gogh in September 1888.It was probably one of those days when Vincent could not go out to paint because of bad weather. Nevertheless, he had a burning desire to paint something every day. There is one more painting that he made in 1889 which has two crabs. One of them is lying on its back.
