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
In this whimsical illustration by Arthur Rackham, we are transported to the fantastical world of Jonathan Swift's Gulliver's Travels. The image captures a Laputian gentleman taking an unusual stroll through the skies of Laputa, as described in Part III of the book. The Laputians were known for their peculiar customs and eccentricities, and Rackham masterfully brings them to life with his intricate details and imaginative style. The gentleman is depicted walking on air with the help of a cross-shaped contraption attached to his back, resembling wings or flaps. His odd attire and wide-eyed expression add to the sense of otherworldliness. As he floats above an island filled with geese flying alongside him, it becomes clear that this scene is not bound by earthly rules. The satire and political undertones present in Swift's work are also hinted at here through subtle elements such as the man's stick-like legs and inflated bladder-like body. Rackham's skillful interpretation perfectly captures both the absurdity and charm found within Gulliver's Travels. This print serves as a delightful reminder of Swift's timeless tale, inviting us to embark on our own voyage into imagination and satire.
