This was a fortieth birthday present for my wife and she teared up a little. Scale was my worry, and Mestre got exactly the room it needed at this size.
Two of us carried the box in expecting the worst and everything inside was perfectly protected. The blues in Mestre match what I remember from seeing the Canaletto in person. The packing slip, the label and the contents all matched my order exactly. The order confirmation, the shipping notice and the delivery all lined up as promised.
The packaging alone told me these people care about what they ship. I have seen Mestre in books for twenty years and this is the first version that felt right…
This took almost three weeks to arrive, and once it did I stopped caring about the wait. I bought it for Mestre and I am glad I did. It works with what we already own, which was the main test.
The box was well packed and everything inside was in perfect condition. The box showed some wear from the trip and the contents were untouched. The price is high for the category, and the quality mostly justifies it. It solves the problem I bought it for.
I have ordered from four stores this year and this was the only one with no issues. The blues in Mestre match what I remember from seeing the Canaletto in person. It survived a week of the air conditioning being out in Houston in July.
It sat at a distribution center for five days with no updates, which was frustrating.
Two of us carried the box in expecting the worst and everything inside was perfectly protected. I have wanted a good version of Mestre in this house for years. The scale works exactly the way I measured it out beforehand.
We put money aside for a few months to buy this and I would do it again tomorrow. Standing six feet back, Mestre reads exactly the way it should. It looks expensive next to things that cost twice as much. It is easily my favorite thing in the dining room now.
I bought this after two months of looking and I wish I had done it sooner. For anyone choosing between Canaletto pieces, Mestre is the one to get. Two people have taken a photo of it to send to someone else. Fog rolls in most mornings out here and it has stayed fresh through all of it. I have zero notes.
My neighbor saw it through the window and ordered one that night. I grew up with Mestre on a calendar in my grandmother's kitchen and this is a far better version. The veining across the poster is dramatic without being busy.
We put money aside for a few months to buy this and I would do it again tomorrow. The detail in Mestre came through far better than I expected at this size. The return window was generous, and I never needed it.
Everything about this is good except the amount of time it took to get here. The edges are neat, with nothing loose or uneven. The stone on the poster has more gray in it than the listing photo suggested. Solid purchase, all things considered.
I asked about dimensions before ordering and had a clear answer within the hour. Buy it, you will not regret it.
We ordered the poster for the hallway and ended up moving it somewhere everyone can see it. Steam heat dries this apartment out all winter and it has not suffered for it.
