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 toast to the engaged couple" artist Carl Wilhelm Huebner takes us back in time to witness a significant moment in the lives of two individuals. The scene is set within an elegant interior, where family members have gathered to celebrate the engagement of a young man and woman. As we observe closely, it becomes apparent that this union may not be entirely based on love but rather arranged by their parents. The atmosphere is filled with mixed emotions as the betrothed couple stands side by side, each wearing expressions that hint at uncertainty and perhaps even regret. The young woman's eyes reveal her reluctance towards this unwelcome suitor, while the young man appears lost in thought, contemplating his future. Surrounded by their families, who are eagerly raising their glasses for a toast, one can't help but notice an awkwardness between them. It seems as though they come from different worlds – she exudes sophistication and refinement while he possesses a more rustic charm or bumpkin-like quality. As we delve deeper into this artwork, we begin to question whether this engagement was indeed a mistake or if true love could blossom from such circumstances. Regardless of our interpretations, Huebner masterfully captures the complexity of human relationships and invites us to ponder upon themes of tradition versus personal desires. This stunning print serves as both a visual delight and an invitation for contemplation about societal norms surrounding engagements and marriage throughout history.
