Oil painting: Final - cheerful but not too much - Rug: Feathers Lane | PinkAbbey

Oil Painting, not hanging on a wall, but placed in front of a valuable rug - that is an exciting bringing together of two works of art. New harmonies arise.

In a special exhibition in Augsburg in autumn 2015 under the title "linked", paintings by Wolfgang Lettl were combined with rugs by Jürgen Dahlmanns (RUG STAR).

For most of the paintings we managed to find a combination where the rug can enhance the subtle meaning of the painting.This way the painting and the rug mesh together.

The tilting millstone in this painting which is induced by the jumping off of the “reliable” is evidently represented in the background of the rug.

The horizontal lines of the peacock's feathers indicate the equilibrium that existed a short time before.

The jump-off ofthe “reliable” is on the same time the end of the person sitting in front of him. But this donkey-like figure is unaware of his upcoming demise, so he continuous to play peacefully.

The painting: “Finale - allegro ma non troppo”, was one of the last art works of Wolfgang Lettl.
