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 Alessandro Magnasco's masterpiece, "Saint Anthony of Padua preaching to the fishes at Rimini" painted between 1720 and 1725. The oil on canvas artwork measures 55 x 85 cm and is currently housed in the Musee de la Chartreuse in Douai, France. In this intriguing scene, Saint Anthony of Padua stands on a stormy beach, surrounded by crashing waves. With his arms outstretched and eyes filled with fervor, he passionately delivers a sermon to an unexpected congregation - a group of attentive fish swimming near the shore. Magnasco's unique mannerist style brings this extraordinary moment to life. The dramatic lighting and bold brushstrokes create an atmosphere charged with spiritual energy. As Saint Anthony preaches his message of faith and hope, the fish seem captivated by his words, their scales shimmering under the artist's skillful hand. The painting captures both the power of nature and the divine intervention that transcends it. It reminds us that even amidst chaos and uncertainty, there is always room for connection and understanding. Through this remarkable depiction, Magnasco invites viewers to contemplate our place within creation and reflect upon how we can find solace in unexpected places. With its rich symbolism and masterful execution, "Saint Anthony of Padua preaching to the fishes at Rimini" continues to inspire awe centuries after its creation.
