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 print showcases the portrait of Edmund Spenser, an esteemed English poet, alongside the frontispiece to his renowned poem, The Faerie Queene. Originally published in 1590, this engraving by George Vertue is a true masterpiece that now resides in a private collection. Edmund Spenser (c. 1552-99) is best known for his magnum opus, The Faerie Queene, which beautifully weaves together fantastical allegory and celebrates the Tudor dynasty and Queen Elizabeth I. This epic poem has become an enduring symbol of English literature. The frontispiece depicted in this print features an oval design adorned with fleur de lis and lys motifs. It perfectly captures the essence of Spenser's enchanting world as it intertwines with elements from Elizabethan culture. In this half-length portrait, Spenser exudes wisdom and creativity. His gaze reflects a profound understanding of human nature and poetic expression. The accompanying text adds depth to the composition while providing insight into the themes explored within The Faerie Queene. This remarkable artwork not only pays homage to one of England's greatest literary figures but also serves as a testament to the power of art in preserving history and inspiring generations to come.
