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.

The Head of the House at Prayer
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating oil painting by British artist Frederick Goodall, created in 1872. This large-scale artwork measures 99x248.8 cm and depicts a scene of religious devotion set in the countryside. The central figure, an elderly Middle Eastern man, stands outdoors with his hands clasped together in prayer. Surrounded by a medium-sized group of men and camels, this powerful image captures a moment of worship and contemplation. The soft furnishings and intricate carpets add to the richness of the composition, while the tent in the background hints at an encampment or rest stop. Goodall's attention to detail is evident throughout this piece; from the clothing worn by each individual to the natural phenomena that surround them. The artist skillfully portrays both human figures and animals with equal precision. The serene atmosphere portrayed here invites viewers to reflect on their own spiritual beliefs as they observe this intimate moment captured on canvas. "The Head of the House at Prayer" serves as a reminder that regardless of cultural differences or geographical location, faith can be found everywhere. This print allows us to appreciate Goodall's mastery even today, long after its creation over a century ago. It offers us insight into both historical context and artistic technique while reminding us of our shared humanity through prayer and worship across time and cultures.
