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 by Ken Welsh showcases a 19th-century reproduction of a 15th-century wood carving found on a stall in Rouen Cathedral. The intricate carving represents the proverb "Margaritas Ante Porcos" which translates to "Throwing Pearls Before Swine". The image transports us back to the medieval ages, where a man is depicted standing on a dais surrounded by beautiful daisies. He holds a basket filled with pearls, symbolizing precious wisdom or valuable knowledge. However, instead of an appreciative audience, he faces swine or pigs who are known for their lack of appreciation for such treasures. The black and white medium enhances the historical essence of this artwork, evoking feelings of nostalgia and curiosity about ancient times. The detailed engravings and sketches add depth to the overall composition, allowing viewers to appreciate the craftsmanship that went into creating this piece. Through this photograph, we are reminded of the timeless nature of proverbs and phrases that have been passed down through generations. It serves as a visual representation of caution against wasting valuable resources or knowledge on those who cannot appreciate them. Ken Welsh's skillful capture invites us to reflect upon history while appreciating the beauty and significance behind these medieval illustrations.
