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
In this oil painting titled "A Cat Attacking Dead Game". Alexandre-Francois Desportes skillfully captures a moment of intense action and natural instinct. The artwork, part of a pair, showcases the artist's mastery in depicting wildlife scenes from the 17th and 18th centuries. The focal point of the composition is a majestic cat, poised with predatory precision as it pounces on its prey. With eyes fixed on its target, claws extended, and teeth bared, the feline exudes power and determination. Its sleek fur contrasts beautifully against the muted background, highlighting every detail of its graceful form. Surrounding the cat are various species of birds hanging lifelessly from hooks. Ducks dangle alongside other avian creatures that have fallen victim to their predator's prowess. This juxtaposition between life and death adds depth to the narrative portrayed by Desportes. The artist's attention to detail is evident in his meticulous rendering of feathers and textures throughout the painting. Each bird exhibits delicate brushstrokes that bring them to life even in their demise. This stunning print serves as a testament to Desportes' ability to capture nature's raw beauty while showcasing his technical expertise as an artist. It invites viewers into a world where animals reign supreme, reminding us of our place within nature's intricate web.
