This is the rare thing that looks better in my house than it did on the website. Standing six feet back, Landscape with a Cow Drinking reads exactly the way it should. Nothing has loosened, faded or worn since it arrived. For what we paid, I expected to compromise somewhere, and I did not.
It showed up with a corner crushed and no padding to speak of. Anyone who knows this Rembrandt will see immediately what is wrong with Landscape with a Cow Drinking.
Nothing about this felt like a gamble once I opened it. The tones in Landscape with a Cow Drinking shift as the light changes through the day. The weight of the pillow is substantial in a way the pictures cannot show. It looks expensive next to things that cost twice as much. We moved from a studio in Manhattan out to Queens and this came through the move fine.
This showed up three days after I ordered it and I have not stopped looking at it since. Every corner and edge on the pillow was finished properly. The packing slip, the label and the contents all matched my order exactly. I will order from here again the moment I need something.
The packaging alone told me these people care about what they ship. The texture in Landscape with a Cow Drinking is visible from across the room.
