The
rich
colors
of
evening
and
the
wonderful
glow
that
accompanies
that
special
time
of
day
served
as
a
backdrop
and
inspiration
for
this
major
watercolor
by
Richard
Bollinger.
The
Patriarch,
now
a
local
landmark,
captures
a
moment
in
time
when
scenes
like
this
were
commonplace.
Farms
and
the
families
that
worked
them
played
a
vital
role
in
the
community.
They
were
centers
of
activity.
Today,
silent
and
surrounded
by
commercial
expanse,
this
classic
Pennsylvania
landscape
stands
as
a
timeless
reminder
of
those
early
years
and
a
monument
to
the
countless
patriarchs
whose
hard
work,
dedication,
and
faith
contribute
greatly
to
our
rich
heritage
and
life
in
rural
America.
The Patriarch was created using a Giclée process. Each Giclée is printed on fine German etching paper and produced individually using an eight color digital press. The press sprays millions of droplets of inks directly on the paper surface yielding an image that is continuous in tone. The archival quality of the print is remarkable. The special links used have been tested to last over two hundred years under normal viewing conditions. Although each print has a protective finish, like the original, they are fragile and care should be taken in handling. This process of reproduction is by far the most accurate, guaranteeing faithfulness in color and detail to the original artwork.
