Milan, the artistic and elegant capital of Italy
Ville de contrastes, à la fois moderne et chargée d’histoire, Milan occupies a unique place in the world of Italian art. City of Leonardo da Vinci and great patron families, it has witnessed the birth of some of the most beautiful pages of European painting. Between Gothic splendor, Renaissance refinement, and contemporary dynamism, Milan embodies the perfect union of tradition and creation.
Through this exclusive collection, Artem Legrand invites you to rediscover Milan through the eyes of the masters who painted or celebrated it: Leonardo da Vinci, Giovanni Segantini, Francesco Hayez, Carlo Carrà, and Umberto Boccioni. Each art print testifies to the strong bond between the city and the artists, between urban beauty and pictorial emotion.

The beauty of Milan at the heart of your decor
A Milan art print is much more than a simple urban view: it is an invitation to culture, elegance, and modernity. Painters have captured the light of Northern Italy, softer and more silvery than that of the South, as well as the balance of shapes and perspectives.
The art prints of Milanese paintings fit perfectly into minimalist, contemporary, or classic interiors. A view of the Duomo cathedral, a 19th-century urban landscape, or a romantic portrait inspired by the Lombard school add sophistication and depth to your walls.
A thriving and intellectual city, Milan reflects in its works a controlled beauty, discreet sensitivity, and natural elegance — qualities that make it a timeless decorative theme.

The great Milanese and Lombard painters
Leonardo da Vinci, an iconic figure of Milan, created some of his masterpieces there, including The Last Supper, painted in the refectory of the Santa Maria delle Grazie convent. His influence left a lasting mark on Milanese painting, notably through his mastery of sfumato and composition.
Francesco Hayez, a great Romantic painter of the 19th century, gave Milan its most famous canvases, where passion, history, and freedom intertwine.
Giovanni Segantini, from the Lombard region, glorified alpine nature with vibrant and spiritual light.
Then, at the dawn of the 20th century, Umberto Boccioni and Carlo Carrà made Milan the heart of Futurism, an avant-garde movement celebrating speed, modernity, and the power of artistic gesture.
