Picture "River of Oblivion" (2007), framed
A meditative masterpiece: The ancient legend of the "River of Oblivion" was already known as part of Greek Mythology. Ritgen: "This river is a bridge between the worlds - it is a symbol for our journey, our way out of the narrow confines of our earthly existence towards liberation and union with the one cosmic power and truth... By leaving behind yesterday, today and tomorrow, by forgetting, the now begins."

Customer reviews
Frame variant: Stretcher frame
Das Bild selbst ist wunderschön, ich hatte jedoch einige Probleme beim Aufhängen in Kombination mit der flexylot Bildaufhängung die hier im Shop als Zubehör empfohlen wird. Ich habe das Bild in der Keilrahmen-Variante gekauft.
Bei flexylot muss ein Rahmenhalter hinten unter dem Rahmen befestigt werden. Der Rahmenhalter ist aus dünner Plastik und kann an einer Bruchstelle gekürzt werden, aber selbst dann ragt er bei korrekter Position (es darf hinten nicht mehr als 2mm überstehen) nach vorne in die Leinwand, und das ist spätestens nach dem Aufhängen deutlich sichtbar. Glücklicherweise lässt sich die Plastik mit einfachem Werkzeug (Schere, Cutter o.ä.) bearbeiten. Ich empfehle beim Kauf von der Keilrahmenvariante den Rahmenhalter vor dem Anbringen so zu kürzen, dass er auf Leinwandseite glatt anliegt.

About Ule W. Ritgen
Ule W. Ritgen is a true multi-talent and internationally successful painter, lyricist and musician.
In 2007, he was voted one of the top 5 songwriters in Japan. His band "Fair Warning" has long been a cult in Asia: "I already had golden records on the wall as a musician when my childhood dream of painting caught up with me again." In his paintings, he combines surreal dreamscapes with old-masterly pictorial composition: "It is only a wafer-thin membrane that separates the world of our dreams from the so-called 'real world'. For me, the transitions are completely fluid – reality has many levels and facets."

Giclée = derived from the French verb gicler "to squirt, to spray".
The Giclée method is a digital printing process. It is a high-resolution, large-format print produced with an inkjet printer using special different-coloured dye- or pigment-based inks (usually six to twelve). The inks are lightfast, meaning they are resistant to harmful UV light. They provide a high level of nuance, contrast, and saturation.
The Giclée process is suitable for art canvases, handmade paper and watercolour paper as well as silk.
