Love and Rockets-inspired 'Saudade' Art Print

This song is special to me: it's extraordinary. Years ago I went down the rabbithole of the title: 'saudade' is a Portuguese word, with no direct translation into English:

"An emotional state of melancholic or profoundly nostalgic longing for a beloved yet absent someone or something. It derives from the Latin word for solitude. It is often associated with a repressed understanding that one might never encounter the object of longing ever again. It is a recollection of feelings, experiences, places, or events, often elusive, that cause a sense of separation from the exciting, pleasant, or joyous sensations they once caused." It's though to be uniquely associated with the Portuguese personality - though of course that's part is nonsense, since that idea pierces me to my very heart. Uh, in a good way of course. 

So how to visualize that? Impossible. Until I found this b*tshit vintage retro sci-fi paperback cover: I have no effing clue what's going on here, but the mood and tone of it seems to be perfect: I can feel all the saudade pulsing like a neutron star in every pixel of this.

So if you're shopping for something ultra-cool for the alt-rock fan, or Love and Rockets/Bauhaus fan in your life (mayhap that's you!) then you finally got to the right place. Long end of the tail!

It is! We use a global fulfillment company that enables us to print at a printing company local to you, across 23 countries, and then shipped to you from there. It's fast, and all shipping costs are baked into the price you see here. It also means no import or customs fees.

If you need something expedited, then please message me before you buy - there are several super-fast shipping options available (up to overnight) with corresponding premiums.

There will be white borders around the image to facilitate framing, if you decided to frame or mount yourself. The left/right, vertical borders will almost always be thicker than the top/bottom, horizontal borders because of the dimensions of the source material (actual pulp paperback novel covers, or movie posters). I can't stretch the image to fill standard paper sizes without it looking, well, stretched - they look bad and believe me, you don't want that. Because every single poster uses a unique source image, no two images have the same dimensions.

We typically ship orders out within 2 - 3 business days of ordering. From there shipping may take an additional 3-5 business days; most of my customers receive their orders within 10 days of ordering, regardless of destination (yes, Perth, that includes you!).

Yes you can: in addition to the default black, frames are available in white, light wood/birch, and dark wood. Metal frames are also available. If you want a different colour or material for your frame, PLEASE CONTACT ME BEFORE BUYING since I need to intervene before your order gets automatically processed.

No, that's only on the website version to dissuade bootleggers from stealing my stuff. Your final product will be clean of any watermark.
