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 engraving, titled "Portrait of Giovanni Battista Piranesi" showcases the remarkable talent of Italian artist Francesco Polanzani. Created in 1750, this print captures the essence of Piranesi, a renowned architect and artist from the 18th century. Polanzani's attention to detail is evident in every stroke, as he skillfully portrays Piranesi's strong features and piercing gaze. The Latin inscription adds an air of sophistication to the composition, further emphasizing his intellectual prowess. The artist has chosen to depict Piranesi in a state of undress, symbolizing vulnerability and raw authenticity. This choice allows us to see beyond his external appearance and into the depths of his creative mind. A cloud hovers above him, perhaps representing his imaginative spirit that transcends earthly boundaries. It serves as a reminder that great artists like Piranesi are not confined by societal norms but instead soar freely through their artistic endeavors. The bust-like composition focuses solely on Piranesi's upper body, allowing us to fully appreciate his facial expressions and physical presence. The absence of any distracting elements directs our attention solely towards him. This exquisite print is part of a private collection but fortunately available for public viewing through www. bridgemanart. com. It offers viewers an intimate glimpse into the life and genius behind one of history's most influential architects and artists - Giovanni Battista Piranesi
