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.

Reading the Breviary, The Evening
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating oil painting by Carl Spitzweg that transports us to a serene moment in time. Set against the backdrop of a breathtaking landscape, we witness a solitary figure engrossed in his religious devotion. As the sun sets and twilight descends upon the scene, the man sits outdoors with his book held close to his heart. Dressed in a soldier's uniform and wearing a peak cap, he exudes an air of quiet contemplation. His hat casts a shadow over his face as he immerses himself in the pages of the breviary. The painting captures both solitude and tranquility simultaneously. The vastness of nature surrounding him emphasizes his isolation while also highlighting its beauty. It is as if he has found solace amidst this picturesque setting, seeking spiritual connection through prayer and reflection. Spitzweg's attention to detail shines through in every brushstroke, particularly evident in capturing the warm hues of sunset illuminating both man and landscape alike. This piece belongs to the Biedermeier era, known for its focus on simplicity and introspection - qualities reflected here within this intimate portrayal. "Reading the Breviary, The Evening" invites viewers into a moment frozen in time; it encourages us to pause from our busy lives and find solace within ourselves just like this devout reader does amidst nature's embrace.
