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 portrait captures the essence of wisdom and experience etched onto the face of an elderly man. Painted by Balthasar Denner, a renowned German artist from the 17th century, this oil on canvas masterpiece is truly a testament to his skill and attention to detail. The subject's weathered features tell a story of a life well-lived. His deeply lined face reflects years of laughter, sorrow, and countless stories untold. With his balding head adorned with only remnants of hair, he exudes an air of vulnerability and acceptance that comes with old age. A magnificent white beard cascades down his chin, adding character and depth to his countenance. It speaks volumes about the patience and wisdom that come with time. The carefully groomed mustache adds an element of refinement to this otherwise rugged appearance. Displayed in Hamburg's prestigious Hamburger Kunsthalle museum in Germany, this timeless piece evokes emotions within its viewers as they contemplate their own mortality and ponder upon the passage of time. Denner's masterful brushstrokes bring out every wrinkle, every crease on this old man's face - reminding us all that beauty can be found even in our imperfections. This print serves as a poignant reminder that aging is not something to be feared but rather embraced for it brings forth knowledge, resilience, and grace.
