Destination write-up
Here’s the write-up that features on your print.
Quito, the jewel of the Andes, a city perched among the clouds. Here, where the sky brushes the earth, the heart of Ecuador beats with vibrant energy. With each step, you journey through history. Quito's historic center is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, its streets filled with centuries of stories. The colonial architecture tells of Spanish conquest and indigenous heritage, creating a unique and harmonious blend.
But it's not just history that enchants you; it's the setting. The city lies in the embrace of the Andes Mountains, with the towering Pichincha Volcano watching over its streets. Breathe in the crisp, mountain air and feel the spirit of adventure stirring within you.
As the equator runs through this city, you can straddle the hemispheres at the Mitad del Mundo monument, a thrilling feat that's not only geographical but also symbolic. You're in two places at once, in a city that exists at the crossroads of cultures. The heart of Quito pulses with creativity and culture.
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.
