BRIAN STAUFFER CENTENNIAL COLLECTION

The brilliant American illustrator Brian Stauffer was commissioned to create these highly original works to commemorate each opera in San Francisco Opera's 100th season. As stunningly colorful as every production on stage, we offer these images as stretched canvas prints, elegant art stock prints (shipped in sturdy tubes) and notecards. Please take a look at the images - your wall is waiting.

(Please note: stretched canvas print is vertical in aspect.)
