About This Listing
This listing is for an original miniature diorama box scene painted with professional-grade watercolors on 100% cotton Arches watercolor paper and assembled using archival-quality glue. The diorama box is made of chipboard, covered with textured paper, and then painted a light apricot using velvety acryla gouache paint. The box illustrates lines from a 20th-century version of the old hymn "How Can I Keep From Singing?" and features moving parts to go with the song.
To illustrate "when tyrants tremble in their fear," the king's hand are strung through the box with thick copper wire and can be jiggled using wooden knobs on the back of the box to suggest trembling. To illustrate "and hear their death knell ringing," the bell is composed of two parts joined to the beam with a brass split pin. A thread tied through a hole in the ringer can be pulled back and forth to "swing" the bell on its perch overlooking the grim castle.
With the lid closed, the box measures roughly 3.75 x 2.75 x 1.25 inches. This is not a print, but a one-of-a-kind original painted papercraft creation.
Bryana Says
This original paper diorama box illustrates these lines from the version of "How Can I Keep From Singing?" popularized by folk singer Pete Seeger and Irish music legend Enya:
"When tyrants tremble in their fear
And hear their death knell ringing,
When friends rejoice both far and near
How can I keep from singing?"
