We offer free shipping on orders of $100 or more and a flat-rate shipping charge of $9.95 on orders less than $100.
Shipping artwork requires special packaging and attention. If you are ordering framed prints, canvas prints, or originals, we will add a surcharge to cover this extra packaging, delivery cost, and insurance, even if your order totals $100 or more.
As you can imagine, it is much more expensive to deliver a large, framed print than it is to deliver an unframed print on paper. We want your items to arrive in perfect condition, no matter their size. If your item requires a surcharge it will be noted on the product page as you make your selection, and in your shopping cart when you check out. Our surcharges are based on product weight and size, and reflect our actual costs to safely deliver your artwork.
If you’d like to pick up your order in Duluth or Grand Marais to save on shipping or surcharge fees, call 218-387-2491 and place your order by phone. We welcome all phone orders!
Northernness:
…The state or quality of being northern.
…A fascination with northern lands, but also a sense of longing for an unattainable, imaginary world.
…The quality of being from the north; northern character or tradition.
Art of the North reflects Lake Superior’s beauty, environment, history, and people, and includes the regions of far north Alaska and Canada. The artists at Sivertson Gallery express this northernness in the animals, landscapes, history, unique lifestyle, and community they capture in their art.
We have hundreds of prints and originals for sale, and new art is added every month. We represent new and upcoming artists, as well as nationally-known artists who have been with us for over 40 years.
