About Marylène Madou
About the Artwork
Art Deco Pekin Ducks brings Marylène Madou's richly layered illustration style to a scene of ducks set among lush botanical detail. The Belgian artist works by hand painting her compositions before refining them digitally, a process that gives her work its distinctive depth and pattern rich texture. Drawing on an interest in historic textiles and natural motifs, Madou builds compositions where animal and plant forms interlock in decorative, rhythmic arrangements. Here, the ducks are framed by dense foliage rendered in confident, layered brushwork, echoing the graphic sensibility of art deco design. The result is an animal subject with real ornamental richness and modern polish.
This archival fine art print captures the fine layering and textile like patterning of the original with sharp clarity, letting every brushstroke and detail come through cleanly on museum grade paper, preserving the composition's full graphic precision.

Recommendations for you
Handmade picks - just for you
Art prints and canvas prints from our own studio in Berlin.
We pick every motif ourselves, so you don't have to scroll through tens of thousands of images. Only art we would hang at home makes it into the shop: classics like Hasui's woodblock prints or Klimt's paintings, and work by contemporary artists. Our own team makes every piece in our workshop, from print to frame to packing.

Questions? We're here.
Any questions? Our team in Berlin is always here to help.
Which paper do you use?
Matte fine art paper from Ilford, 225 g. It is smooth, holds fine detail, and its matte surface keeps reflections low.
How long does delivery take?
We make every order in our Berlin studio, usually within 1 to 3 working days, and then hand it to the carrier. In Germany it arrives 2 to 5 working days later. Other countries take longer, and Swiss parcels can sit a day or two at customs.
Can I return my order?
Yes — we offer 30-day hassle-free returns on all prints. If your print arrives damaged or there is a quality issue, we will replace it free of charge.
How do you make sure of the quality?
Our own team makes every art print and canvas print in our Berlin workshop, from printing to framing to packing. What you pay goes into the quality: Japanese pigment inks, matte fine art paper, cotton canvas and solid wood frames in oak, black or brown.
Art print or canvas print?
Choose an art print if you like crisp detail and a classic look behind acrylic glass. Choose a canvas print if you want the texture of a painting and no glass at all. With a floating frame, the canvas seems to float on the wall.
What frame does my art print come in?
A solid wood frame in oak, black or brown, with a 2 cm wide moulding, 2 mm acrylic glass and an acid-free backboard. On the outside the frame is 4 cm wider and taller than the format, so a 50 × 70 measures 54 × 74 cm.
What is a passepartout?
A passepartout is a light card border between the frame and the art print. With us the frame stays the same size and the visible image gets a little smaller. You can add it in every size together with a frame.
Is this a giclée print?
Yes. We make every art print with the giclée process, using Japanese pigment inks on matte fine art paper. The inks are archival and made to last over 100 years.
How high should I hang a picture?
The centre of the picture works best at 145 to 150 cm above the floor. Above a sofa or sideboard, the picture should be about two thirds as wide as the furniture.
What is an art print?
An art print is a reproduction of an artwork on fine art paper. We choose every motif ourselves and make it in our Berlin workshop with archival pigment inks.
