Enduring
Legacy by Robert Richert

"From my perspective, old barns are like
works of art, and most possess a unique and
individual personality. In bygone days,
placing advertising slogans on the facades
of barns was very popular . Today, one can
still see them in various parts of the
country. Recalling my travels through the
Midwest, the inspiration for this painting
came to me - paint an American Flag on the
facade of a barn! Our flag, a powerful
symbol, inspired me to employ symbolism in
this painting. For example, I created the
blue sky and the patterns of the fleecy
clouds to subtly mirror the patterns of a
waving flag. In order to convey a feeling of
optimism, the setting is early spring: The
snow is melting, new growth is sprouting,
and sunny days lie ahead. Finally, I think
that this old barn stands as symbol for
traditional values like hard work,
craftsmanship, endurance, pride, and our
kinship to the land. For all Americans, the
Flag is an Enduring Legacy,
just like the weathered barn"
