The Figure 1 painting: seven figures on three canvases for a living room
The Figure 1 painting is three canvases with seven figures hung side by side in a row, and every size in the menu is the whole set, width first; each canvas is a third of the total width and the full height. At 65 x 40 cm one canvas is about 22 cm wide and 40 cm tall; at 90 x 60 cm, 30 cm wide and 60 cm tall; at 120 x 80 cm, 40 cm wide and 80 cm tall; at 150 x 100 cm, 50 cm wide and 100 cm tall; at 175 x 110 cm, about 58 cm wide and 110 cm tall; at 195 x 120 cm, 65 cm wide and 120 cm tall; at 210 x 130 cm, 70 cm wide and 130 cm tall; at 225 x 140 cm, 75 cm wide and 140 cm tall; at 240 x 150 cm, 80 cm wide and 150 cm tall; and at 250 x 155 cm, about 83 cm wide and 155 cm tall.
65 x 40 cm suits a narrow hallway wall or the space above a desk. Above a 180 cm bed, choose 120 x 80 cm, and above a 220 cm sofa, the Figure 1 set in 150 x 100 cm, about two thirds of its width. From 210 x 130 cm up, the set needs a long living-room wall, an open-plan space or a staircase wall.
Every canvas with the red, green and blue figures arrives stretched on its own wooden stretcher, included in the price, so it is ready to hang. Hang them with equal gaps and a level centre line, starting from the middle canvas with three figures. The 150 x 100 cm set is in stock and is delivered in 6 days, all other sizes in 15–45 days. The Figure 1 painting is hand-painted in thick layers, so it is not a print.
Who is the three-panel Figure 1 painting for?
Figure 1 is for a long wall in a living room, above a sofa or a bed, in a dining room or an office, where a single canvas would look too small. Seven figures in red, green and blue stand across three canvases, without faces or details, so every viewer reads them their own way: as a family, as friends or as a crowd. The middle canvas carries three figures and holds the composition together. Figure 1 goes with white, grey and warm wooden surfaces.
How is the three-panel Figure 1 painted?
Figure 1 is hand-painted by our painters as one painting on three canvases, in thick layers of paint. The ground comes first, then the figures, built up in dense red, green and blue so the layers can be seen and felt on the canvas. Because the figures are shaped by hand, every Figure 1 set comes out a little different. We send you a photograph of all three finished canvases to approve, then ship the set.
Stretched and unframed, or framed?
Multi-panel paintings always ship stretched and unframed, so all three canvases of Figure 1 are stretched in our workshop in Slovenia on 2.5 cm deep wooden stretchers, included in the price. Without a frame the figures run to the edges and the gaps between the canvases stay clean. If you would like Figure 1 framed, we frame each of the three canvases separately on request when you order.
How do I hang the three-panel Figure 1?
Keep the shared centre of the three Figure 1 canvases at eye level, about 150 cm from the floor; above a sofa, leave 20 to 30 cm between the back and the bottom of the canvases. Start with the middle canvas and its three figures, then hang the side canvases left and right with an equal gap of 3 to 5 cm. Paper templates the size of the canvases and a spirit level make it easier. A soft dry brush is enough for the thick layers.
Is Figure 1 a good gift?
Figure 1 is a gift for a new family home or a couple moving in together, as the figures recall people standing side by side; the 90 x 60 cm set fits above a chest of drawers. If you do not know how much wall there is, give a gift voucher.
