Snapshots of the Past Garfield Wall Art L sku-13248453902

This Snapshots of the Past Wall Art print depicts the Garfield Building in Cleveland, Ohio. It is a Black, size L, 16" x 20" reproduction. The company restores historical maps, photos and prints from Library of Congress archives and makes reproductions with archival paper and pigmented inks.

Founded in 2001, it says it was the first company to offer Library of Congress images as fine-art reproduction prints. Its buyers have included over 200 bookstores and other retailers, along with tens of thousands of internet customers. It was selected as a vendor for the White House redecoration project of 2008.

Lithography, a technique that made inexpensive mass-produced prints possible, was invented in 1796. The Library of Congress began its American Memory pilot project in 1989; that project laid the groundwork for the National Digital Library Program, which began in 1995 and digitizes selected collections on American cultural history.

Archival paper and pigmented inks are intended to let prints last a lifetime and be passed down. The company's range also includes old Halloween, Mother's Day and Valentine's Day posters, early aerial views of Manhattan, Boston, Chicago and San Francisco, and retro-style posters for homes, studies and workplaces or as gifts.
