Frequently asked questions

LEDs are housed in an aluminium frame, behind a diffusing acrylic sheet that carries the gradient. When lit, they shine through the sheet and reveal the sun, which seems to be born in the centre of the piece and spread onto the wall.

Like a soft, matte flat colour: the gradient remains visible, more muted, and the painting holds its place on the wall like a canvas. It is a decorative piece in its own right, even in broad daylight.

It is ambient light. It gives a room its colour and temperature, but does not replace a ceiling light for reading or working. It comes into its own alongside one or two low lamps.

LEDs give off very little heat and use little energy, especially at the low intensities most often used in the evening. At maximum, the 55 format uses 24 W and the 80 format 54 W.

We do not state a lifespan until it has been measured. If a defect appears, the legal guarantee of conformity applies for two years after delivery, as for any purchase from a professional seller.

The Essential version is switched on and adjusted with the knob under the frame. The Connected version has no knob: it is controlled with its wireless remote, which works as soon as it is plugged in, from the free app for iOS and Android, or by voice with Alexa and Google Assistant.

No. The dimmer under the frame of the Essential version, like the remote of the Connected version, works without Wi-Fi. Wi-Fi is only used for the app and the voice assistants of the Connected version.

Yes, with the connected version. From the app or an Alexa or Google Assistant routine, set the time for switching on and off: set to a low intensity, the painting gently lights the bedroom when you wake up.

Two keyhole brackets are fixed on the back of the piece, and two screws with their wall plugs are included: it hangs like a heavy frame, on two screws set apart. If your wall needs other plugs, we recommend Fischer DuoPower 6 × 30 universal plugs, sold with their screws: they hold in plaster, plasterboard, brick and concrete. For the 80 format (5.6 kg), plan on two people.

• Set on a console, a chest of drawers or a mantelpiece, leaning against the wall: no holes at all. On the Essential version, the dimmer knob sits under the frame: slip two small cork pads under the corners, slightly thicker than the knob, and choose the cable exit at the bottom.
• Hung from a picture rail, if your wall has one: two picture-rail hooks and two steel wires, no holes either.
• On plasterboard, two 3M CLAW hooks (11 kg model) push in by hand, without tools, and leave only small holes that are easy to fill.

We advise against adhesive strips: they are not designed for a piece of this weight connected to a cable. Each solution is explained in our hanging advice.

It runs to a wall socket. For an invisible installation, have an electrician fit a socket behind the painting, or guide the cable through a thin trunking painted the colour of the wall.

The 55 format suits entrance halls, studies, bedrooms and narrow walls; the 80 format suits living rooms and the space above a sofa or double bed. Our format guide shows them to scale, and we are happy to advise you from a photo.
