A fine trio on the wall watches over the couch and listens happily to conversations with friends about God and the world. The three abstract images dedicated to the archangels are painted on real handmade paper with pure gold. They fit just as well in an urban, modern apartment as in a cozy alpine hut,
in a glass room office or next to the classic, elegant bookcase. Set consisting of three individual pictures of the holy archangels Michael, Raphael and Gabriel:
23 kt gold leaf, double ducat gold from the Austrian Mint on handmade paper approx. 21 x 28 cm = 8,3 in x 11 in
Handmade unique item similar to the one shown
Signed and with certificate card
The digital element is the font, printed with conventional black printer ink
Size: approximately A4 21 cm x 28 cm or 8.2 in x 11 in
The archangel pictures in original Wonnereich frames
There are three of them in this set of 3 archangel images:
St. Michael, the fighter. His picture shows wild strokes, like those he might have drawn in the air with his sword.
St. Gabriel, the Messenger: Too fast to hold on, only one wheel can be caught.
AndSt. Raphael, the Healer: He does it his way: little by little, bit by bit. You can see the healing process in this picture if you want.
The images are carefully hand made with real gold. On the white, also handmade, genuine handmade paper with the soft, wavy edges, the gold always shines slightly differently depending on the light and time of day. The abstract motifs always tell new stories when viewers want to let their imagination run wild.
Pure beauty captivates the eye again and again.
Gift tips
Archangel pictures as a gift
The minimalist style of the images suits most interior design styles. As a gift, this set is suitable for many occasions: as a Christmas present, birthday present or for the inauguration of a new apartment or office.
The three archangels are also very suitable as a wedding gift, for moving into a new apartment, for opening a business, a doctor's office or a therapy center. For an anniversary or retirement. Archangel Memorial Day is September 29th.
More modern wall pictures for the living room, office, ordination or practice.
The application consists of genuine 23-karat double ducat gold leaf from the Austrian Mint.
In addition, I use digital elements, for example in the lettering, which is applied to the paper with conventional printer ink using a complex process and represents the computer technology of our time.
Each artwork is unique. My own techniques allow the creation of similar works, but never identical ones.
I sign each sheet by hand (pencil, monogram WR for Wonnereich, or UR for Ulrike Rainer), sometimes on the reverse. A certificate card with details on materials and technique is included.
Handwork & Handmade Paper
I create the artworks by hand in mixed media on fine handmade paper. The paper is slightly cream-coloured and features irregular, hand-torn edges.
This edge structure is material-related and gives each artwork an individual character. For this reason, the dimensions of the works may vary slightly.
The usual formats are approx. A4 (approx. 21 × 28 cm or 8,3 x 11,0 in) or approx. A5 (approx. 19 × 15 cm or 7,5 x 5,9 in), depending on execution and availability.
Unless otherwise stated, the handmade paper used comes from paper mills in Italy or Spain, regions with some of the oldest paper-making traditions in Europe.
On Iron
Upon request, the artwork is presented on iron.
The iron works are made of controlled rusted iron with a material thickness of approx. 0.5 to 1 mm, depending on availability. The rusting process is initiated by hand, then stopped, and the surface is sealed.
Patterning and rust structure vary, as does the coloration, ranging from silvery-grey tones to reddish-brown hues.
Unless otherwise stated, the artwork is mounted using the included magnets. In individual cases, the work is screwed.
Iron works are generally centrally pre-drilled and prepared for wall mounting, except for larger formats (e.g. 40 × 50 cm). These are not pre-drilled, as their weight does not allow mounting with a single nail.
Special requests (e.g. without pre-drilling) are possible depending on availability.
Note: The image shown represents an example from the respective series. Rust structure, coloration, and mounting method may vary depending on the individual execution.
