17"x15" (43x38cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 10x8 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 17x15 inches (431x381mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the timeless beauty of Edna Purviance, a renowned actress from the early days of cinema. The studio portrait, preserved by the British Film Institute, captures her elegance and grace in a way that transports us back to the golden age of silent films. Edna Purviance's radiant smile illuminates the frame as she gazes directly into the camera with an air of confidence. Her delicate features are accentuated by soft lighting, highlighting her flawless complexion and expressive eyes. Dressed in a classic ensemble, she exudes sophistication and poise. Purviance was not only known for her striking looks but also for her remarkable talent on screen. She was Charlie Chaplin's leading lady during his most iconic years in film, starring alongside him in numerous comedic masterpieces that have stood the test of time. In this photograph, we see beyond just an actress; we witness a woman who played an integral role in shaping cinematic history. Her contributions to early filmmaking were invaluable, leaving an indelible mark on audiences worldwide. As we admire this stunning portrait today, let us remember Edna Purviance as more than just a face captured on celluloid but as a trailblazer whose artistry continues to inspire generations of filmmakers and actors alike.
