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 stunning portrait captures Rear-Admiral Sir Thomas Graves in all his naval glory, painted by the talented James Northcote in 1801-02. Standing proudly in his rear admiral's full-dress uniform, Graves exudes authority and strength as he gazes off into the distance.
The background of the painting adds depth and significance to the composition. The 'Defiance', a powerful warship with 74 guns, is depicted in action at Copenhagen in 1801, showcasing Graves' involvement in important naval battles of his time. Additionally, a large urn symbolizing remembrance stands on the right side of the portrait, honoring Graves' late wife.
Graves' expression is stoic yet thoughtful, hinting at the complexities of his character beyond his military achievements. His contribution to the British navy during a crucial period in history is evident through this masterful portrayal by Northcote.
Displayed at the National Maritime Museum in London, this painting serves as a timeless tribute to an esteemed figure from Britain's maritime past. It encapsulates not only Graves' physical appearance but also his legacy as a respected leader within the naval forces of Europe during the early 19th century.
