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.

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, titled "Wrestling" takes us back to 19th century England and offers a glimpse into the historical pastimes of its people. The print, part of a private collection, is an illustration for Joseph Strutt's renowned book "The Sports and Pastimes of the People of England". Originally published in 1801, this edition was enlarged and corrected by J Charles Cox around 1890. The artwork depicts two wrestlers engaged in a fierce match. With their muscular bodies intertwined in an intense struggle for dominance, they showcase the physicality and skill required in this traditional English sport. Wrestling has long been cherished as both a game and a sport throughout history. This print not only captures the essence of wrestling but also provides valuable insights into English culture during that era. It serves as a reminder of how sports have played an integral role in shaping societies across Europe. With its fine engravings faithfully reproduced from the original edition, this lithograph showcases the mastery of technique employed by German artists at that time. Its inclusion within Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection ensures that it can be appreciated by art enthusiasts worldwide. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are transported to another time - one where wrestling served as both entertainment and competition; where games were cherished pastimes; where history unfolded through various sporting activities.
