Denny Chimes Painting – Alabama 5×7 Greeting Card by Mark Tisdale
This Alabama greeting card 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 greeting card? Were you looking for a card to send to a friend who’s an Alumni of the University of Alabama? Or is this for you? I hope you’ll drop me a note with any thoughts or questions you might have.
