"Number-17A" by Jackson Pollock Wall Art
In 2015, Number-17A was sold to Kenneth C. Griffin, an American hedge fund manager and billionaire, for $200 million. The price sets the world record for the most expensive painting ever sold at that point.
Paul Jackson Pollock (1912 – 956) was an American painter and a major figure in the abstract expressionist movement.

He was widely noticed for his 'drip technique' of pouring or splashing liquid household paint onto a horizontal surface, enabling him to view and paint his canvases from all angles. It was also called 'action painting' since he covered the entire canvas and used the force of his whole body to paint, often in a frenetic dancing style.
A great image for framing behind glass, or block mounting on canvas to create a focal point and conversation piece in any art lover's home.
For your ease of shopping, we offer a range of standard landscape, portrait & square sizes, but also make custom sizes on request, for a small surcharge.
The standard sizes reflect the outside dimensions of the mounted canvas, floating frame or framed print:
- For Framed Prints, within those dimensions sits the frame, window mount, and print itself.
- For Mounted Canvas + Floating Frame, within those dimensions sits the frame, floating space and canvas itself.
i.e. the footprint on the wall will always be the size shown, whichever option you select.
The table below shows the exact dimensions of each element of the framed products:
See below for the detailed product shots.
Framed Prints, behind glass, with 22mm gallery frames in black, white, wood (& other colours for a surcharge):
Mounted Canvas, ready-to-hang, with optional 10mm floating frame in black, white, wood (& other colours for a surcharge):
Printing
We only list art & photography that can be printed up to 3m in size at 300dpi resolution.
On photographs taken a long time ago you may see some graininess, or the canvas texture in some artworks, but this is how the original looks and how it is meant to be reproduced - you never see pixelation in canvas or framed prints from Pixalot, whichever size you purchase.
The in-situ renders you see here are low resolution for website speed purposes, but you are welcome to request a section of the high resoltion image to see the detail you will see on your purchase.
We print on a colour calibrated Epson printer for picture-perfect results.
Framing
Because we also manufacture for top interior designers and luxury decor brands, we do not import cheap product from China, unlike other wall art suppliers.
We make-to-order in our studio in Cape Town, using the highest quality materials and most skilled local craftsmen. We use only the finest wood frames (black, white, ash wood) canvas, mounting card and glass available, and whereas most retailers use 25mm subframes, we stretch the canvas over 45mm subframes, which gives it gravitas on the wall.
All products come ready-to-hang with the necessary brackets, screws and wall plugs.

The framed images and mirrors can be cleaned with standard window cleaner for the glass and a damp cloth on the frames. Please don't use chemicals on the frames.
The canvases come with a protective matt varnish applied, and should also be cleaned only with a damp cloth, not chemicals.
