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 timeless masterpiece "St. Joseph, the Carpenter" by Georges de la Tour. Painted in oil on canvas, this exquisite artwork measures 120.5x80.8 cm and is housed at the Musee des Beaux-Arts et d'Archeologie in Besancon, France. The painting beautifully captures St. Joseph engrossed in his work as a carpenter, bathed in chiaroscuro lighting created by a flickering candle nearby. The artist's meticulous attention to detail is evident as he portrays the saint with utmost precision and skill. In this scene, we witness a young boy - possibly Jesus himself - observing St. Joseph intently while surrounded by an array of tools and wood shavings scattered across their workshop floor. This depiction not only highlights the craftsmanship of carpentry but also symbolizes the passing down of skills from one generation to another. As we gaze upon this remarkable image, we are transported back to Nazareth where St. Joseph honed his trade and nurtured his relationship with Jesus Christ during his formative years. Through this powerful composition, Georges de la Tour invites us to reflect on themes such as dedication, labor, and familial bonds that transcend time and place.
