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 oil painting by Louis Leopold Boilly, titled "Couple with an Escaped Bird" captures a moment of intimacy and intrigue. The couple depicted in the artwork is shown in a beautifully detailed interior setting, their bodies positioned close together as they interact with an escaped bird. The painting's symbolism adds depth to its narrative, as it represents the loss of virginity. This theme is subtly conveyed through the presence of the bird, which serves as a metaphor for innocence escaping or being set free. The artist skillfully explores themes of love, desire, and flirtation within this 18th-century context. Boilly's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke; from the delicate expressions on the faces of the lovers to their suggestive attire that reveals hints of decolletage and cleavage. The composition exudes sexual tension and invites viewers into a world filled with lustful desires. Displayed at the Louvre Museum in Paris, France, this masterpiece showcases Boilly's mastery over his craft. Through his use of color and light, he brings life to each element within the painting – from the intricate sculpture in the background to even capturing subtle nuances like undressed figures. "Couple with an Escaped Bird" offers us a glimpse into 18th-century French society – its bourgeoisie class and complex relationships. It reminds us that art has always been a powerful medium for exploring human sexuality throughout history.
