Paul Detlefsen Art Prints
This special gallery features Paul Detlefsen reproductions. These 6 images are the ONLY Detlesfen prints that we have available. We do not have a catalog featuring these images. The only way to view them is on-line. If you have questions or want to see a larger version of a particular print, please contact us by email. For a short biography of

If you are looking for a Detlefsen print that you don't see here, or are wondering about the value of that Detlefsen print you found in the attic, try Ebay online auctions at: Ebay.com. Searching the completed auctions can give
you an idea of what similar prints are selling for.
All of the Detlefsen prints are specially matted with a unique black, red-core board for the inner mat. This accents the reds in each of the prints without giving them a red and green "Christmas" look. The red-core mat is an expensive, special order board, that we got in just for these prints. The frames are all dark oak, so they all coordinate.

The Village Blacksmith by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow 1842
|
Under a spreading chestnut-tree
The village smithy stands;
The smith, a mighty man is he,
With large and sinewy hands;
And the muscles of his brawny arms
Are strong as iron bands.
His hair is crisp, and black, and long,
His face is like the tan;
His brow is wet with honest sweat,
He earns whate'er he can,
And looks the whole world in the face,
For he owes not any man.
Week in, week out, from morn till night,
You can hear his bellows blow;
You can hear him swing his heavy sledge,
With measured beat and slow,
Like a sexton ringing the village bell,
When the evening sun is low.
|
And children coming home from school
Look in at the open door;
They love to see the flaming forge,
And bear the bellows roar,
And catch the burning sparks that fly
Like chaff from a threshing-floor.
He goes on Sunday to the church,
And sits among his boys;
He hears the parson pray and preach,
He hears his daughter's voice,
Singing in the village choir,
And it makes his heart rejoice.
It sounds to him like her mother's voice,
Singing in Paradise!
He needs must think of her once more,
How in the grave she lies;
And with his haul, rough hand he wipes
A tear out of his eyes.
|
Toiling,--rejoicing,--sorrowing,
Onward through life he goes;
Each morning sees some task begin,
Each evening sees it close
Something attempted, something done,
Has earned a night's repose.
Thanks, thanks to thee, my worthy friend,
For the lesson thou hast taught!
Thus at the flaming forge of life
Our fortunes must be wrought;
Thus on its sounding anvil shaped
Each burning deed and thought.
