For kunstværker eller reproduktioner, der er større end 105 cm (ca. 41 tommer) på en hvilken som helst side, vil rammen blive leveret som et adskilt sæt. Denne metode sikrer sikker levering og forhindrer skader under transport.
Professionel montering er påkrævet – dette er ikke et gør-det-selv produkt.
Sættet skal samles, og lærredet skal opspændes af en erfaren professionel indrammer ved brug af trælim (ikke medfølger), en lærredsspænder og klemmer til at holde blindrammen vinkelret, mens limen tørrer. Forkert samling eller ujævn spænding af lærredet kan beskadige kunstværket permanent og er ikke dækket af vores garanti.
Alle massive trælister er inkluderet, præcist tilpasset i størrelsen.
Samles med de medfølgende skruer samt trælim til hjørneforbindelserne, som ikke medfølger og skal anskaffes af din indrammer.
Professionelt værktøj er påkrævet og medfølger ikke: en lærredsstrækker (spændetang) og klemmer til at holde blindrammen vinkelret, mens limen tørrer.
Vigtigt:
Hjørneforbindelserne kræver trælim, listerne skal holdes fast med skruetvinger, indtil limen er helt tør, og opspænding af lærredet på den samlede ramme kræver en lærredsspænder. Ingen af disse dele er inkluderet i sættet. Vi anbefaler, at du kontakter en erfaren professionel indrammer, før du bestiller denne størrelse.

Kunstnerbiografi
John Simpson: A Life in Portraiture
Early Life and Training
- Born in London in 1782, John Simpson embarked on a career as a portrait painter during a vibrant period of British art.
- He received his foundational training at the prestigious Royal Academy, honing his skills and establishing himself within the artistic community.
- Crucially, Simpson spent several years as an assistant to Sir Thomas Lawrence, PRA – a leading portraitist of the era. This mentorship profoundly shaped his style and approach to capturing likenesses.
Artistic Development and Style
- Simpson’s early work reflects the influence of Sir Thomas Lawrence, characterized by a refined technique and attention to detail. He quickly gained recognition for his ability to create flattering and accurate portraits.
- He exhibited regularly at the Royal Academy from 1807 until his death, demonstrating consistent productivity and engagement with the art world.
- While primarily a portraitist, Simpson’s work occasionally ventured beyond conventional society portraiture, hinting at a broader artistic sensibility.
Major Achievements and Commissions
- Royal Patronage: In 1834, Simpson received a significant commission to travel to Portugal and paint portraits in Lisbon.
- His success led to an appointment as Painter to the Queen of Portugal, solidifying his reputation on the international stage.
- Notable Sitters: Simpson painted numerous prominent figures, including William IV and many other notable individuals of his time. His portraits provide valuable visual records of British society during the 19th century.
‘The Captive Slave’ and Rediscovery
- A Turning Point: Simpson's painting, ‘The Captive Slave,’ created a significant shift in his artistic legacy. It remained largely unseen for nearly 180 years.
- Acquisition and Recognition: The Art Institute of Chicago acquired the work in 2008, bringing it to public attention.
- Abolitionist Significance: ‘The Captive Slave’ is now recognized as a powerful statement against slavery. It demonstrates Simpson's capacity for venturing beyond conventional portraiture and engaging with important social issues.
Legacy and Historical Significance
- Despite some contemporary criticism suggesting his work lacked “instinct and penetration,” John Simpson established a successful career as a respected portrait painter.
- Family of Artists: He had two sons who also pursued artistic careers – Charles, who died young, and Philip, who found success with small domestic subjects.
- Enduring Impact: The rediscovery of ‘The Captive Slave’ has elevated Simpson's status, highlighting his talent and the painting’s importance as a symbol of the abolitionist movement. He is now recognized not only for his technical skill but also for his contribution to social commentary through art.
