Motif of the mural
Saint Joseph carries the child through the rough night. This abstract image of the nurturing father of Jesus Christ radiates protection and security. The delicacy of the gold painting is particularly impressive on the iron plate decorated with a wild pattern. Nevertheless, the saint appears powerful as he resolutely goes his own way.
A picture that always invites you to rediscover it and is full of surprises, because the combination of metals always creates new effects depending on the incidence of light.
Wall Art Metal
Metal murals are becoming increasingly popular. This creation suits almost all furnishing styles, its special appeal comes from the meeting of two metals: gold, which is considered the most noble, and iron, which is one of the most common metals found in the earth.
One of its prominent properties is magnetism. That's why the picture, which is painted on real, handmade paper, can be attached to the iron plate with four small magnets as desired. Whether in the middle, at the top, at the bottom, or slightly offset in one of the corners, the mural will always make an impression.
Suitable for many living styles
The modern, abstract wall painting in metal adapts to many interior styles. It acts as a counterpoint in elegant living spaces thanks to the rough metal plate and conveys a touch of “industrial style”. In lofts and an environment already characterized by metal and wood,
The delicacy of the motif comes into its own particularly well on the white handmade paper. In the office or other more sober rooms, its multi-faceted design and imaginative design are fascinating, leaving room for your own interpretations. The mural adorns rustic walls in country house style as well as a Scandi-style ensemble.
For living rooms, bedrooms, offices or business premises, for workshops and businesses, hotels and restaurants, bars and inns.

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.
