Denny Chimes Painting – Alabama Canvas Print by Mark Tisdale
This Alabama canvas print features a Denny Chimes painting. One of my favorite things as more people connect with my work is getting requests for specific subjects and I had several people ask about this one.
The Denny Chimes have been a fixture on the south side of The Quad at the University of Alabama in Tuscaloosa for decades. The idea of a towering campanile was originally dreamed up as a memorial to those lost in the first world war. But money was tight and nearly a decade passed before that dream became a reality. The bell tower was completed and dedicated in 1929.
Several University of Alabama alumni have told me they can hear the carillon when they look at this Denny Chimes painting. Isn’t it amazing the power of our senses? That the sight of something can bring back sensations like hearing? In this case the sight of the landmark Denny Chimes stirs the same emotional response of hearing its bells. I love and understand that!
The art deco architecture of the Denny Chimes is really complimented by the surrounding landscape of the campus. There’s certainly a park-like setting if not the feel of an actual woodland. And there’s just something about the soaring lines of the tower piercing the canopy of the trees. It’s a beautiful combination that if I read about it, I wouldn’t expect to like, but seeing is believing and the result is harmonious.
I would love to hear what brought you to this particular University of Alabama canvas print? Were you looking for the perfect gift to give a friend who’s an Alumni of the University of Alabama? Or were you looking for a Denny Chimes painting of your own to remember your time as an Alabama student? I hope you’ll drop me a note with any thoughts or questions you might have.
Canvas Prints – Product Information
Stretched canvas prints are a great choice for decorating your home or office. Canvas art is a classic choice that is at home in traditional and modern decor alike.
After the purchase of your canvas print, it is made to your order. The artwork is printed on an acid-free poly/cotton blend canvas. The use of archival inks and substrate means that your canvas art print should last a lifetime without fading or loss of color.
When ordering your print, you have a choice between glossy and matte finishes. While I ordinarily love matte finishes on prints, I do like the sheen that comes on glossy canvas prints. Ultimately I would suggest letting the amount of light in your space guide your choice. In a brightly lit environment, I would lean towards a matte finish to reduce the chance of glare.
There are three wrap styles to choose from for canvas prints. The mirrored wrap choice mirrors and extends the image to the sides of the canvas wrap (without losing any of the original artwork on the front). The majority of the time I would suggest this is the best choice. The other two options are a solid black wrap or white wrap. You can see a preview of each option when selecting wrap color.
After printing, the canvas is stretched over and secured to a wooden frame of 1.5″ by 1.5″ stretcher bars. The entire production process takes from 5 to 7 business days. Your artwork will arrive in sturdy packaging. The hanging wire will be attached and all hardware necessary to hang your canvas print will be included. Canvas prints are a great ready-to-hang option.
