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
This print showcases the remarkable painting "A Miner" by Constantin Emile Meunier, a renowned Belgian artist from the 19th century. The powerful oil on canvas composition is currently housed in the Musee de la Chartreuse in Douai, France. The image depicts a male miner, his face weathered and marked with traces of hard labor. Dressed in rugged work attire, he stands tall and proud as a representative of the working class. His dirt-streaked clothing and worn-out hat tell tales of countless hours spent toiling underground. With a lamp illuminating his path and a neckscarf tightly wrapped around his neck for protection, this portrait captures both the physical toll and resilience inherent in mining work. Meunier's attention to detail brings forth an incredible sense of realism that allows us to connect deeply with this anonymous worker. The full-length portrayal emphasizes not only the miner's strength but also his vulnerability within an industry dominated by powerful forces beyond his control. This piece serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by those who dedicate their lives to extracting precious resources from deep within our earth. Through this evocative artwork, we are transported into the world of miners - their struggles, aspirations, and unwavering spirit. It is an homage to all workers who have labored tirelessly throughout history for our collective progress.
