For artworks or reproductions larger than 105 cm (approximately 41 inches) on any side, the frame will be shipped as a kit, disassembled. This method ensures safe delivery and prevents damage during transport.

Professional assembly required - this is not a DIY product.
The kit must be assembled and the canvas stretched by an experienced professional framer, using wood glue (not supplied), a canvas stretching plier and clamps to hold the bars square while the glue dries. Incorrect assembly or uneven canvas tension can permanently damage the artwork and is not covered by our warranty.

All solid wood bars are included, precisely cut to size.
Assembled with the screws provided, plus wood glue for the corner joints, which is not supplied and must be sourced by your framer.
Professional tools are required and not included: a canvas stretching plier (tensioner) and clamps to hold the bars square while the glue dries.

Important:
The corner joints require wood glue, the bars must be held with clamps until the glue is fully dry, and tightening the canvas on the assembled frame requires a canvas stretching plier. None of these are included in the kit. Please arrange an experienced professional framer before ordering this size.

Artist Biography

Robert Havell: Life and Legacy

Early Life and Family Background

Robert Havell (1793-1878) was a renowned English engraver, etcher, and painter. Born in Reading, Berkshire, England, he came from a family deeply rooted in the arts. His father, Robert Havell the Elder, was also an accomplished engraver and publisher. The Havell family boasted numerous artists, writers, publishers, educators, and musicians, providing young Robert with an environment rich in creative stimulation.

Artistic Development and Training

Growing up within such a creatively inclined family, Havell was exposed to art from a very early age. He received his initial training from his father, mastering the techniques of engraving and etching. This foundational education proved crucial for his later success. His artistic style developed with a keen attention to detail and an ability to capture the essence of his subjects.

Collaboration with John James Audubon

Havell is most famously known for his pivotal role in producing The Birds of America by John James Audubon. Between 1827 and 1838, he served as the engraver and publisher of this monumental work. This collaboration showcased Havell’s exceptional skill in aquatint – a technique involving etching designs onto copper plates to create tonal variations. The sheer scale and ambition of The Birds of America cemented both Audubon's and Havell’s reputations.

Artistic Style and Notable Works

Havell’s artistic style was characterized by precision, detail, and a sensitivity to the natural world. While best known for his aquatints of Audubon’s birds, he also created landscapes and portraits demonstrating his versatility as an artist. Some notable works include his engraving of “A Battle,” which highlights his mastery of composition and technique. Other significant pieces include:

A View of Poughkeepsie
Hudson River Valley Landscape
Wild Turkey
Windsor Castle
Attack on Fort Oswego, Lake Ontario, N. America

Influences and Associations

Havell’s work reflects an interest in both the natural world and historical events. His collaboration with Audubon clearly demonstrates a fascination with ornithology and wildlife. He also showed an appreciation for Indian art and culture, which subtly influenced his aesthetic sensibilities. The Hudson River School movement, with its emphasis on romantic landscapes, also appears to have impacted his landscape paintings.

Legacy and Historical Significance

Robert Havell Jr. died in London in 1878, leaving behind a lasting legacy as one of the foremost practitioners of aquatint engraving. His meticulous work on The Birds of America remains a testament to his skill and dedication. He played an integral role in popularizing American wildlife art and contributed significantly to the development of printmaking techniques during the 19th century. Today, his works are celebrated by art lovers worldwide and can be found in prominent collections, including those available at WahooArt.com.
