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.

Biografija umetnika
James Ensor: A Pioneer of Expressionism and Surrealism
James Sidney Edouard Ensor (Ostend, 13 April 1860-19 November 1949) was a Belgian painter and printmaker who stands as one of the most influential figures in the development of Expressionism and Surrealism. Born into an English father and Belgian mother—a duality that profoundly shaped his artistic worldview—Ensor defied convention from the outset, rejecting academic formalism and embracing unsettling imagery rooted in psychological exploration.
Early Influences and Artistic Training
His formative years were marked by exposure to Ostend’s vibrant seaside atmosphere and his parents’ souvenir shop, which stocked exotic objects and carnival masks – stimuli that ignited his imagination and instilled a lifelong fascination with disguise. Ensor pursued formal artistic training at the Académie Royale des Beaux-Arts in Brussels, where he encountered fellow artists like Fernand Khnopff and Theo Van Rysselberghe—connections that fostered intellectual debate and propelled him beyond traditional boundaries.
A Shift Towards Grotesque Visionary Art
Around 1886-1889 Ensor embarked on a transformative stylistic journey, abandoning Impressionistic ideals for Expressionist techniques characterized by bold brushwork and vibrant color palettes. Influenced by Rembrandt’s masterful use of chiaroscuro, Francisco Goya’s unflinching depictions of human suffering, and Japanese woodcuts—a fascination with visual symbolism—Ensor developed a distinctive iconography focused on grotesque figures and unsettling narratives.
Key Masterpieces and Recurring Themes
His most celebrated works – including *Christ's Entry into Brussels* (1888-1889), *The Scandalized Masks* (1883) and *Skeletons Fighting over a Hanged Man* (1891) – exemplify Ensor’s commitment to confronting uncomfortable truths about human psychology and societal hypocrisy. Recurring themes throughout his oeuvre include death, decay, social critique, religious satire, and the boundless potential of imagination—elements that continue to resonate with audiences today.
Legacy and Influence
James Ensor's uncompromising artistic vision solidified his position as a pivotal innovator in modern art, paving the way for Expressionist artists like Edvard Munch and Surrealists like René Magritte. His rejection of academic conventions and embrace of psychological depth profoundly impacted subsequent generations of painters—establishing him as an enduring symbol of artistic rebellion and intellectual courage.
