Original artwork description:

A charcoal drawing inspired by Byron’s poem:

"She walks in beauty, like the night"

SHE walks in beauty, like the night
Of cloudless climes and starry skies,
And all that's best of dark and bright
Meets in her aspect and her eyes;
Thus mellow'd to that tender light
Which Heaven to gaudy day denies.

One shade the more, one ray the less,
Had half impair'd the nameless grace
Which waves in every raven tress
Or softly lightens o'er her face,
Where thoughts serenely sweet express
How pure, how dear their dwelling-place.

And on that cheek and o'er that brow
So soft, so calm, yet eloquent,
The smiles that win, the tints that glow,
But tell of days in goodness spent,—
A mind at peace with all below,
A heart whose love is innocent.

Materials used: vine charcoal on a hand prepared acid-free watercolor paper (300g); gold leaf; fixative to ensure the charcoal is going to withstand shipping.

The drawing is carefully packed, sandwiched between two cardboard sheets and layered with bubble wrap to protect it and ensure the framed drawing will reach you safely.

World Wide shipping takes around 10 days to arrive, depending on the destination.

IMPORTANT:

Displayed image size of the drawing can vary from the actual size. I’ve included a few secondary images that might give you an idea about the size of this artwork in a frame and in a home interior context. The drawing comes without a frame but can be easily fitted into one.

If you have any questions about, for instance, a tailor made order or discount when purchasing more than one painting please send me a message. I’ll be happy to answer all your questions or make a commissioned painting, just for you.
