Framed here from above is Heraklion, the bustling capital of Crete, its terracotta rooftops spreading between the mountains and the Aegean Sea. The photograph takes in the harbour, historic centre and sun-baked sprawl of the largest city on Greece's greatest island.
A vivid piece for anyone who has explored Heraklion, or who loves the light and life of the Cretan coast.
Destination write-up
Here’s the write-up that features on your print.
In Heraklion, history is a living, breathing entity that dances through the streets, whispering tales of ancient glories and modern delights. This vibrant city on the island of Crete is a spirited blend of the old and new, where the past meets the present with a joyful embrace. It's a place where you can walk in the footsteps of ancient Minoans, explore medieval fortresses, and indulge in contemporary Mediterranean pleasures.
The Venetian Walls, an architectural masterpiece, encircle the city like a protective embrace, telling stories of a time when knights and kings roamed these streets. Within these walls, you'll find a labyrinth of narrow alleys lined with charming shops, inviting you to discover local treasures, from crafts to mouthwatering delicacies.
Heraklion is a culinary paradise, where the scent of freshly baked bread mingles with the aroma of olive oil and the breeze from the nearby sea. Its restaurants offer a journey through Cretan cuisine, with dishes that celebrate the island's rich gastronomic heritage.
Print size & quality
Every piece is printed on thick, 175gsm fine-art matte paper with archival inks — so the colours stay rich, deep and true for years, with no fading and no fuss. Before it heads your way, it's wrapped in soft tissue to keep it scratch-free and sent out in a sturdy kraft tube or a robust triangular kraft box (never plastic).
Available sizes
Framing options
Fancy it ready to hang? Add a solid pine frame — sturdy, handsome and built to last. Take your pick from black, natural wood, or white. Each one is 20–25mm deep and 10–14mm wide: the sweet spot between strength and understated good looks.
We finish every frame with shatterproof, crystal-clear plexiglass to keep your print pristine — and it arrives already framed, so it goes straight from the box to your wall with no faff.
Framing is available for these sizes: A4, A3, A2, A1, 8x10, 11x14, 12x16, 12x18, 16x20, 18x24, 20x28, 24x32, 24x36 and 28x40.
