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 lithograph captures Heungseon Daewongun, the influential father of King Gojong of Korea, in all his regal glory. Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this print showcases the historical significance and rich cultural heritage of Korea. Heungseon Daewongun (1820-1899) was not only a father to King Gojong but also served as a regent during his son's early years on the throne. This portrait exudes power and authority as he dons traditional Korean costume and an elaborate headdress that symbolizes his high rank within the monarchy. The late 19th century marked a crucial period in Korean history, with rapid changes taking place both domestically and internationally. Heungseon Daewongun played a pivotal role in navigating these turbulent times, ensuring stability for his son's reign amidst political challenges. Through this lithograph, we catch a glimpse into the life of one of Korea's most prominent figures. The intricate details captured by the artist highlight not only Heungseon Daewongun's physical appearance but also provide insight into Korean fashion and aesthetics during that era. As we admire this piece from Bridgeman Images' private collection, it serves as a reminder of Korea's rich past and its enduring legacy. It is through such historical artifacts that we can appreciate and understand the complexities of Asian history while celebrating its vibrant culture.
