A Saint, from the 'Jackdaw of Rheims' / 24" x 36" / Unframed rolled in tube

24" X 36" A Saint, from the 'Jackdaw of Rheims' was painted by Briton Riviere. Riviere's early paintings were based on the works of Shakespeare then turned to animals later in life. However, this painting is an artist depiction of the poem "Jackdaw of Rheims" by Thomas Ingoldsby published in the book The Ingoldsby Legends in 1840. In the poem, a Jackdaw bird steals a cardinal's ring and is proclaimed a saint. The tie in of poetry with a leading feathered friend, this painting may have been a turning point for the artist that lead him to paint animals later in life. Today, the original is on display at the Mclean Museum and Art Gallery in Scotland. Our skilled artists have recreated the same enchanting feeling with this oil on canvas reproduction. Bring art and poetry to your home with this delightful piece.
