About the Item

This drawing was created by Frank Girard with pigment and Chinese ink on 300g/m2 neutral white paper. It depicts Biblical and non-Biblical scenes. The name, "Joseph's Mountain", refers to Genesis 48:21,22: "Then Israel said to Joseph, “Behold, I am about to die, but God will be with you and will bring you again to the land of your fathers. Moreover, I have given to you rather than to your brothers one mountain slope that I took from the hand of the Amorites with my sword and with my bow.”" This drawing is inspired by an engraving by Bruegel (1525-1569), one of the most significant of Dutch and Flemish Renaissance artists. This artwork is not framed. It is strongly recommended to have it framed under glass. Sharing the taste of details as a common point with Bruegel, Frank Girard keeps on telling us through his drawings the stories of his encounters and of himself. As he once stated: "I live in a district called “The written tree”. I don't know if this pretty name has not made its way in my head, but one day I started to draw inhabited trees and grass, with humans in nature, carried by nature, buried in this nature where we come from and where we live. My house is in the forest, I have trees all around me all day. I take care of them. They were there before me, they will stay after me. We observe each other with kindness. When I look at them, I see lots of people in the shade of the leaves, they tell me their adventures, the great myths, biblical or others, and always a quote from Venice. I am in love with this marvel, this total work of art which is this floating city."
