It measures 10.75" x 14.75" and is easily matted in a standard mat for an 11x14 picture I have shown it matted and framed as a sample only. Mat and Frame are NOT included. Painted with artist quality paints, on 140lb cold press paper. Pineapples have long been the emblem of welcome and hospitality. "In colonial America, hostesses would set a fresh pineapple in the center of their dining table when visitors joined their families in their homes. Visiting was the primary means of entertainment and cultural exchange, so the concept of hospitality was a central element in colonial life. The pineapple, then, symbolized the warmest welcome a hostess could extend to her guests, and then often it also served as the dessert for the meal. If the visitors spent the night, they would be given a bedroom with a bed in which pineapples had been carved on either the bedposts or the headboard -- even if that was the master bedroom." http://www.imagekind.com/Hookipa-Hawaiian-Pineapple_art_art?IMID=980969fc-5fd9-411e-a01a-30ede8f59c83<img src='http://thumbs.imagekind.com/member/cd846687-342f-4a6a-8892-46bfef30a3ae/uploadedartwork/100X100/40889447-bc4a-40f7-8b30-ee87b5f9a6f0.jpg' alt='40889447-bc4a-40f7-8b30-ee87b5f9a6f0' border="0" /><BR/>The Cross is an original painting by Melanie Pruitt and is watercolor on canvas.
