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.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Beauty and Misshapennes in the Female Body" by the German School of the 19th century showcases a thought-provoking exploration of body image. The colour lithograph, part of a private collection, was created as an illustration for Anna Fischer's book "La Femme, Medecin du Foyer" (c. 1900), delving into the complexities surrounding beauty standards and women's health. In this artwork, various female body types are depicted side by side, highlighting contrasting ideals prevalent during that era. From obese to emaciated figures, it challenges societal norms and raises questions about what constitutes beauty. The sculpture-like forms evoke both vulnerability and strength. The nakedness of these women emphasizes their raw authenticity while symbolizing openness towards discussing topics often considered taboo at the time. It is a powerful reflection on femininity, hygiene, health, and medical science. By incorporating references to Venus (the goddess of love) and Asclepius (the god associated with healing), this artwork hints at ancient notions of beauty ideals intertwined with medical knowledge. Bridgeman Images' presentation allows us to appreciate this remarkable piece from Fine Art Finder without commercial intent or mention. Through its visual language alone, this photograph print encourages viewers to contemplate society's perception of beauty throughout history while promoting dialogue around body positivity and self-acceptance in today's world.
