-
Za umetniška dela ali reprodukcije, ki so po katerikoli strani širše od 105 cm (približno 41 palč), bo okvir poslan v razstavljeni obliki kot komplet. Ta metoda zagotavlja varno dostavo in preprečuje poškodbe med transportom.
Potrebna je profesionalna montaža – to ni izdelek za DIY izdelavo.
Komplet mora sestaviti in platno napeti izkušen profesionalni okvirjest, pri čemer bo uporabil lepil za les (ni vključeno), klešče za napetje platna in spone, da bi ohranil pravokotnost letev med sušenjem lepila. Nepravilna montaža ali neenakomerna napetost platna lahko trajno poškoduje umetniško del in ni pokrita z našo garancijo.
Vključene so vse letve iz masivnega lesa, natančno izrezane po meri.
Montaža poteka s priloženimi vijaki, vendar je za kotiče potrebna lepil za les, ki ga ni v kompletu in ga mora zagotoviti vaš okvirnik.
Za uporabo so potrebna profesionalna orodja, ki niso vključena: klešče za napinjanje platna (napetnik) in sponke za ohranjanje pravokotnosti letev med sušenjem lepila.
Pomembno:
Za stike v kotih potrebujete lepil za les, nosilce je treba z spenjačami držati, dokler se lepil popolnoma ne suši, za zategovanje platna na sestavljenem okvirju pa potrebujete spenjače za platno. Noben od teh pripomočkov ni vključen v komplet. Pred naročilom te velikosti, prosimo, poskrbite za izkušenega profesionalnega okvirja.

A Vision of Harmony: Edward Hicks’ “Peaceable Kingdom”
Edward Hicks' "Peaceable Kingdom," painted in 1829, isn’t merely a depiction of Noah’s Ark; it’s a profound meditation on faith, community, and the enduring hope for a world united in peace. Born into a Quaker family in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, Hicks’ artistic journey was inextricably linked to his deeply held religious beliefs. He wasn't simply a painter capturing a biblical scene; he was translating a core tenet of Quakerism – the belief in an inherent goodness within all beings and the potential for harmony between humanity and nature – into a visual language accessible to all. This particular iteration, one of sixty-two versions created by Hicks over his lifetime, stands as a testament to his unique vision and enduring appeal.
The painting immediately draws the eye with its vibrant palette—a rich tapestry of earthy browns, deep greens, and the startling blues of a dramatic sky. These grounded tones are juxtaposed against the luminous glow surrounding the central figure, a woman radiating serenity and offering a staff to a lion and a lamb. This isn’t a cold, academic rendering; Hicks employs a distinctly folk art style, characterized by bold outlines, simplified forms, and a palpable sense of warmth. The figures themselves aren't idealized in a classical sense—they possess a rustic charm, reflecting the values of simplicity and humility central to Quaker life.
The Layers of Meaning: Symbolism and Historical Context
At first glance, “Peaceable Kingdom” appears to be a straightforward illustration of the biblical story. However, Hicks’ genius lies in layering deeper meanings onto this familiar narrative. The prominent inclusion of William Penn, the founder of Pennsylvania and another devout Quaker, is crucial. He's depicted signing the Treaty of Shackamaxon with the Lenni-Lenape Indians – a pivotal moment in colonial history marked by broken promises and ultimately, displacement. Hicks subtly critiques the fraught relationship between European settlers and Native Americans, suggesting that true peace requires acknowledging past wrongs and striving for reconciliation.
The animals themselves are laden with symbolic weight. The lion and lamb, of course, represent Christ’s sacrifice and the promise of salvation. But Hicks expands upon this traditional symbolism by including a diverse menagerie—a bear, an ox, a calf, and even a young lion—all coexisting peacefully. This deliberate inclusion underscores the Quaker belief in the inherent goodness of all creation and the potential for harmony between different species and cultures. The presence of children further reinforces this message, suggesting that peace is built on future generations.
Technique and Artistic Style
Hicks’ masterful technique contributes significantly to the painting's emotional impact. He utilized oil paints on canvas with a deliberate, textured brushstroke—a style often associated with folk art. The figures are rendered with a degree of detail, particularly in their clothing and facial expressions, yet they retain a sense of immediacy and accessibility. The composition is carefully structured around a pyramidal form, drawing the viewer’s eye upwards to the central figure – a deliberate technique used to emphasize her importance within the scene.
Notably, Hicks' work reflects the influence of Baroque art, particularly in its dramatic lighting and dynamic arrangement of figures. However, he adapts these elements to his own unique style, imbuing them with a distinctly American sensibility. The use of light, especially bathing the central figure in a golden glow, creates a sense of serenity and hope—a visual representation of the Quaker ideal of “the inner light.”
A Legacy of Peace: Reproduction and Inspiration
"Peaceable Kingdom" continues to resonate with audiences today because it speaks to universal desires for peace, justice, and harmony.
