Destination write-up
Here’s the write-up that features on your print.
Perched high above the Ionian Sea on Sicily's eastern coast, Taormina unfolds like a balcony over the Mediterranean. Founded by Greek settlers upon the slopes of Monte Tauro, this hilltop town has drawn poets, painters and wanderers for centuries, captivated by its views towards Mount Etna and the sea below.
Wander through the Corso Umberto, the pedestrian spine of town lined with baroque churches and stone houses. The Teatro Antico, a Greco-Roman amphitheatre, frames Etna's smoking summit in its stone arches. Descend to Isola Bella, its turquoise coves inviting a slower pace. Pause in the Giardini della Villa Comunale, shaded by palms and bougainvillea above the sea.
Beyond its landmarks, Taormina offers the flavours of Sicily itself: granita, almond pastries, and wine grown on Etna's volcanic slopes. Nearby, the fishing village of Giardini Naxos recalls the island's first Greek footprint. As evening falls, Taormina feels suspended between myth and ease.
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.
