Image detail:
*These are swatches from the image when magnified to the indicated size, as viewed on the average 17" monitor at 1024x768 pixels. They show you the actual sharpness of the print that will hang on your wall. If you have a smaller monitor or have your monitor configured with more pixels, you should "imagine" these swatches a bit larger. Please note that compression artifact (including checkering and banding around higher contrast edges) may be evident as you view these images online. This is a compromise in jpeg images that makes them quicker to load on a web page. The printed image will not have these defects, unless noted under "Artist's technical assment of the image quality. (See "Compression artifact")."
