Peto specialized in a type of painting called trompe l’oeil, which is French for "fools the eye." Trompe l’oeil painters strive to trick viewers into thinking what they see is real. Peto achieved such an effect by depicting items that in actuality are almost flat, such as the scraps of paper and clothtape letter rack. As a result, viewers cannot rely on spatial clues to distinguish between reality and illusion. Peto’s choice of objects creates evocative associations. Here the well-known Matthew Brady photograph of Abraham Lincoln carries with it memories of the president’s assassination. The jack of hearts, often used as a wild card, alludes to elements of chance and luck. In a humorous touch, Peto rendered a cigarette butt at the bottom of the canvas, making it appear to rest on the picture’s frame. The exact meaning of this grouping remains unclear, but Peto evidently saw his world as simultaneously tragic and comic.Peto was a master of the "rack picture," a type of trompe l'oeil ("fool the eye") painting that depicts, with scrupulous detail, miscellaneous scraps of paper attached to a wooden board by strips of cloth tape. Portrayed here is a letter-rack grid with a central X, inside which the artist tacked envelopes, cards, a Jack of Hearts, and a well-known Mathew Brady photograph of Abraham Lincoln. Peto began painting these pictures to decorate offices--as illusions of bulletin boards. Peto was something of a recluse and worked most of his life in obscurity, first in Philadelphia and later in the seaside village of Island Heights, New Jersey. He was devoted to battered lamps, old candlesticks, dilapidated books, and similar things. In this he ran counter to the taste of his times, which preferred still lifes of rich, rare, and fancy objects. His work thus failed to attract a large audience during his lifetime.

Izdelki materialov, med katerimi lahko izbirate

Za vsak izdelek ponujamo vrsto različnih velikosti in materialov. Med naslednjimi možnostmi individualizacije izdelka vam omogočamo, da izberete svojo najljubšo velikost in material:

• Natisnjeni plakat (platno): Our poster is a printed flat canvas paper with a nice surface texture. A print poster is best qualified for placing the art print in a personal frame. Please bear in mind, that depending on the size of the poster print we add a white margin 2 - 6cm around the painting, which facilitates the framing with your custom frame.
• Tisk iz aluminija (aluminijasti dibond): Aluminium Dibond prints are prints on metal with a true depth effect. The bright & white parts of the original artpiece shine with a silk gloss but without glow. This direct UV print on Aluminum Dibond is one of the most popular entry-level products and is an extremely sophisticated way to showcase art prints, since it puts all of the viewer’s focus on the image.
• Tisk iz akrilnega stekla (s prevleko iz pravega stekla na vrhu): The acrylic glass print, often referred to as a plexiglass print, will change the artwork into stunning décor and is a good alternative to canvas and dibond fine art prints. Your own version of the artwork is being manufactured with the help of modern UV direct print technology. It makes deep and vivid colors.
• Natis na platno: The canvas print, not to be mistaken with a canvas painting, is a digital replica printed from a UV direct printer. A canvas produces the plastic impression of three dimensionality. Furthermore, a canvas generates a homelike and pleasing appearance. Canvas prints are relatively low in weight. That means, it is easy to hang the Canvas print without additional wall-mounts. Canvas prints are suited for all kinds of walls in your home.
