Night Songs: The Loon collection, "Tranquil Reflections" by Jim Hansel. Fourth issue in the series. Bradford Exchange, 1994. Plate size approx. 8 inches. Suggested Retail Price $60.00.
The only sound in the midnight quiet of this wilderness lake is the mysterious warbling call of the loon. Perhaps the camper inside the small tent at the forest's edge is lying awake and listening. If so, he may agree with the Cree Indians who believed that loons were messengers from the spirit world.
Most ancient of all water birds, loons are a completely unique species, dating back it is believed, millions of years. Through the ages they have fascinated humankind with their distinctive beauty and haunting call.
In "Tranquil Reflections," fourth plate in his Night Song: The Loon series, artist Jim Hansel once again transports you to the edge of civilization. In this re-creation of his striking original, he displays his masterful artistry, depicting the trees in such impeccable detail, you almost expect to hear the rustle of the leaves. His magical ways
with the effects of light also are seen in the silver moon that peers through the treetops and in the campfire's reflection that turns the waters to red and gold.
"Tranquil Reflections" brings the loon, and the peaceful lake it lives upon, home for you to enjoy.
The creation of the fine collector's plate you have just acquired and whose authenticity is certified by this document is the result of work by an international cadre of skilled artisans. After the plate art was created in the United States, a fine ceramic transfer, incorporating pigments carefully chosen to faithfully re-create the vibrant beauty of the artist's original, was created in France and Germany and permanently fired into the fine Japanese porcelain plate body at more than 1,460° Fahrenheit by talented craftsmen and craftswomen in the United States.
