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.

The Last Moments of Victor Hugo (1802-85) - A Glimpse into the Final Farewell
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a poignant scene from history, depicting the last moments of the renowned French author and novelist, Victor Hugo. Engraved by Adrien Marie in 1885, this image showcases an intimate gathering surrounding Hugo's deathbed on 22nd May. In this solemn moment frozen in time, we witness the deep sorrow and mourning that enveloped the room. The faces of M. Georges and Mademoiselle Jeanne Hugo, his grandson and granddaughter respectively, reflect their profound grief as they bid farewell to their beloved patriarch. The composition also includes other figures who were present during this somber occasion: Dr. Allix attends to Hugo's medical needs while Mr. and Mrs. Lockroy offer solace amidst tears flowing freely down their cheeks. Auguste Vacquerie stands nearby with a heavy heart alongside Paul Meurice. Hugo lies peacefully on a grand four-poster bed adorned with a canopy, symbolizing both his elevated status as a literary giant and his imminent departure from this world. As we gaze upon this evocative engraving by Nadar (Gaspard Felix Tournachon), we are reminded of the universal experience of loss and our shared humanity in facing mortality. It serves as a powerful testament to Victor Hugo's enduring legacy as one of France's most influential writers while capturing the raw emotions experienced by those left
