Tips for use

Point your camera at the floor or a piece of furniture first, then move it slowly up towards the wall. A bare white wall is hard for your phone to recognise.
Move your phone gently from side to side. Holding it still or waving it around quickly does not help.
Make sure there is enough light. In a dark room your phone has nothing to lock onto.
The artwork appears at its true size, so you cannot scale it in AR. Want a different size? Close AR and pick the size on the product page.

About ‘The quiet strength of steel’ by Robert Jan Smit

Weathered, rusty and seemingly forgotten, this engine block stands as a monument to an era when power was still a tangible force. No sleek casings or digital displays, but solid steel, bolts and pipes that together formed a machine one could rely on. These kinds of industrial engines formed the beating heart of factories, where production went on day in, day out, driven by pure mechanics. The visible wear and tear tells a story of years of use. Every patch of rust, every discolouration and every flaking layer of paint is the result of labour, heat and time. Where once everything whirred and vibrated with energy, silence now reigns. Yet that silence is deceptive; look closely and you will see the complexity and craftsmanship with which this machine was built. In the background, the brick walls and pipes reinforce the industrial character of the scene. Everything exudes functionality. Nothing was designed for beauty, and yet it is precisely in this that a raw aesthetic emerges. It is the beauty of use, of wear and tear, and of history that remains visible. This image invites us to reflect on the role that machines of this kind have played in the development of industry and the economy. What was once essential has now become heritage—a tangible reminder of a time when progress was driven by steel and craftsmanship.
