Charles Daubigny was one of the painters of the Barizon school. He is considered an important precursor of Impressionism. Initially Daubigny painted in a traditional style but this changed when he settled in Barbizon to work outside in nature. Daubigny's finest paintings were between 1864 and 1874, these for the most part consist of carefully completed landscapes with trees, rivers and a few ducks.

Giclee (jee-clay) is an advanced printmaking process for creating high quality fine art reproductions. The attainable excellence that Giclee printmaking affords makes the reproduction virtually indistinguishable from the original piece. The result is wide acceptance of Giclee by galleries, museums, and private collectors. Gallery wrap is a method of stretching an artist's canvas so that the canvas wraps around the sides and is secured a hidden, wooden frame. This method of stretching and preparing a canvas allows for a frameless presentation of the finished painting.
