23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 16x12 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 23x19 inches (584x482mm). 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 Benjamin West's "Taste (from the Series The Five Senses)" from 1784. In this neoclassical masterpiece, a young woman is depicted in a three-quarter length pose, leaning on her elbow with an air of elegance and grace. Her arm rests delicately on a bunch of grapes, symbolizing the sense of taste. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every stroke of his pen and brown ink. The fine art arrangement captures the essence of late eighteenth-century neoclassicism, portraying the beauty and refinement that defined this era. The woman exudes sophistication as she sits alone, her posture conveying both poise and contemplation. She wears a headband as an accessory, adding to her allure. Her caucasian ethnicity further emphasizes the cultural context of this period. West's skillful use of ink brings depth and texture to the drawing, highlighting his mastery as an American artist during this time. The composition evokes a sense of intimacy between viewer and subject, inviting us to explore our own sensory experiences through art. This print serves as a testament to West's artistic prowess while also reminding us of the enduring power that fine art holds in capturing human emotions and experiences across centuries.
