Za umjetnička djela ili reprodukcije veće od 105 cm (približno 41 inč) na bilo kojoj strani, okvir će biti isporučen u obliku rastavljenog seta za montažu. Ovaj način osigurava sigurnu dostavu i sprječava oštećenja tijekom transporta.
Potrebna je profesionalna montaža – ovo nije proizvod za samostalnu izradu.
Set mora sastaviti i platno zategnuti iskusni profesionalni uokvirivač, koristeći drvno ljepilo (nije uključeno u set), kljeste za zatezanje platna i stege kako bi se održao pravilan kut letvica dok se ljepilo suši. Nepravilna montaža ili neravnomjerno zategnuto platno mogu trajno oštetiti umjetničko djelo, a takva oštećenja nisu pokrivena našim jamstvom.
Sve letvice od punog drveta su uključene, precizno izrezane po mjeri.
Montira se pomoću priloženih vijaka, uz dodatak ljepila za drvo za spojeve u kutovima, koje nije uključeno u set i koje vaš okviraš mora vlastito nabaviti.
Potrebni su profesionalni alati koji nisu uključeni: škripc za zatezanje platna (zatezač) i stezaljke za održavanje pravokonačnosti letvica tijekom sušenja ljepila.
Važno:
Za spojeve u kutovima potrebno je ljepilo za drvo, letvice se moraju pričvrstiti stezgama dok se ljepilo potpuno ne osuši, a za zatezanje platna na sastavljenom okviru potreban je alat za zatezanje platna. Nijedan od ovih alata nije uključen u set. Molimo vas da prije narudžbe ove veličine osigurate uslugu iskusnog profesionalnog uokvirivača.

Robert Polhill Bevan’s ‘Under the Hammer’: A Window into Early Modern British Art
Under the Hammer, painted in 1914 by Robert Polhill Bevan, is more than just a depiction of a crowded room; it's a meticulously observed snapshot of a pivotal moment in British art history. Measuring an impressive 637 x 637 cm, this black and white composition captures a scene brimming with quiet intensity – a gathering seemingly centered around a horse, likely within the context of an auction or appraisal. Bevan’s work stands as a crucial bridge between the Impressionistic tendencies prevalent at the turn of the century and the burgeoning radicalism that would define British Modernism.
- Subject Matter: The central focus is undeniably the horse, positioned with deliberate prominence within the room's architecture. However, it’s the surrounding figures – a diverse group of men, many in formal attire suggesting an upper-class setting – that truly imbue the painting with its narrative weight.
- Style & Technique: Bevan employs a restrained yet remarkably detailed technique, characteristic of his time. The tonal range is carefully controlled, utilizing subtle gradations of gray to create depth and volume. His brushwork is precise, particularly evident in the rendering of clothing textures and the horse’s musculature, reflecting a commitment to observational accuracy rather than purely expressive color.
A Quaker Banker's Artistic Rebellion
Robert Polhill Bevan’s biography itself is fascinating. Born into a banking family – his parents were Richard Alexander Bevan and Laura Maria Polhill – he initially seemed destined for a life of finance, influenced by his Quaker upbringing. Yet, defying expectations, Bevan embraced an artistic path, fueled by a restless intellectual curiosity and a desire to push the boundaries of representation. His formative years in Paris at the Académie Julian proved transformative, exposing him to the innovative ideas circulating amongst artists like P.
This influence is palpable in ‘Under the Hammer’. The composition’s slightly awkward perspective, the deliberate lack of idealized beauty, and the focus on capturing a specific moment in time – rather than presenting an allegorical or romanticized scene – are hallmarks of Bevan's engagement with European modernism. He wasn't simply copying trends; he was actively participating in a dialogue about how art could represent the world around him.
Symbolic Layers and Emotional Resonance
While seemingly straightforward, ‘Under the Hammer’ is rich in symbolic potential. The horse itself can be interpreted as representing wealth, status, and perhaps even judgment – fitting for an auction setting. The figures surrounding it are equally significant; their expressions, postures, and interactions suggest a complex interplay of observation, speculation, and negotiation. The inclusion of details like books and cups adds layers of domesticity and intellectual engagement to the scene.
Bevan’s ability to evoke a sense of quiet contemplation is remarkable. Despite the bustling activity implied by the gathering, there's an underlying stillness that draws the viewer in. This emotional resonance, combined with the artist’s masterful technical skill, elevates ‘Under the Hammer’ beyond a mere depiction of a scene; it becomes a poignant meditation on observation, value, and the human condition.
A Legacy for Collectors & Interior Design
This hand-painted reproduction captures not only the visual elements of Bevan's original work but also its historical significance and artistic merit. Its size (637 x 637 cm) makes it a commanding presence, suitable for grand spaces or as a focal point within a sophisticated interior design scheme. The monochrome palette lends itself beautifully to a variety of styles – from classic British interiors to contemporary minimalist settings. ‘Under the Hammer’ is an investment in art history and a testament to Bevan's pioneering role in shaping modern British art.
