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 print of "The Alchemist, 1853" we are transported back in time to witness the enigmatic world of an ancient study. Painted by William Fettes Douglas, a Scottish artist from the 19th century, this masterpiece now resides within the prestigious Victoria & Albert Museum in London. As our eyes wander through the image, we find ourselves surrounded by a myriad of intriguing elements. A richly adorned curtain drapes gracefully behind an old man who stands at his cluttered desk. The room is filled with books and manuscripts that speak volumes about his scholarly pursuits. An intricately woven tapestry hangs on one wall, depicting scenes from faraway lands. A large globe sits atop a wooden stand nearby, symbolizing both knowledge and exploration. On the desk itself lies an assortment of scientific instruments - flasks and vials hinting at alchemical experiments taking place within these walls. Amidst this atmospheric setting, our attention is drawn to a painting hanging above the desk; its subject remains mysterious yet alluring. A small lizard perches upon one corner of the frame as if guarding its secrets. This print captures not only a moment frozen in time but also invites us into a realm where artistry meets science and imagination intertwines with discovery. It serves as a reminder that even centuries later, works like "The Alchemist" continue to inspire awe and fascination among those who appreciate fine art's ability to transcend boundaries and ignite curiosity within us all.
