Pathways of the Heart Collection -- "Distant Lights" by Jesse Barnes. The Bradford Exchange production 1993. This is the Fourth issue in this series. Plate size is approx 8 inches. Suggested Retail $60.00.
The cozy lights of a peaceful village wink on to welcome evening. A pale moon rises majestically, illuminating the valley after a refreshing rain. A vintage auto merrily races a steam train chugging its way out of town. From high above, a familiar owl surveys this scenic panorama, which seems at once spectacular and serene.
In "Distant Lights," Plate Four of the Pathways of the Heart series, The Light Painter Jesse Barnes again delights us with his masterful handling of light and shadow.
Moonlight fires the brilliant leaves of a tree with the rich colors of autumn, and shimmers on a peacefully meandering river that, like a magical silver thread, leads our eyes to the center of the composition as if in welcome.
The three distinct light sources in Mr. Barnes's original painting from which this plate has been created—the glowing village, the thunderbolt, and the radiant moon —balance the composition and suggest the harmony of nature with civilization. Combining stunning light effects with a nostalgic subject, "Distant Lights" is an ideal addition to the Pathways of the Heart collection.
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 craft men and craftswomen in the United States.
