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 portrait, titled "Mrs. Gustavus Hesselius (Lydia Getchel Hesselius), c. 1740" is a stunning example of the mastery of oil on canvas by artist Gustavus Hesselius. The painting, measuring 92.1x71.1 cm, is housed in the Philadelphia History Museum at the Atwater Kent. In this three-quarter length portrait, Mrs. Gustavus Hesselius sits elegantly to the left, exuding an air of grace and poise. Her dark bluish grey eyes gaze confidently outwards while her brown hair cascades down in a delicate lock at the nape of her neck. Dressed in a striking greyish brown gown with a light grey stomacher, Mrs. Hesselius embodies refined fashion of the era. A white underblouse peeks through as a ruffled collar at her low-cut neckline and as undersleeves adorned with delicate ruffles at her elbows. The composition showcases Mrs. Hesselius holding a light grey glove delicately in her right hand, adding an intriguing element to the scene that invites viewers to wonder about its significance. Gustavus Hesselius skillfully captures not only his subject's physical features but also conveys her personality and social status through meticulous attention to detail and subtle nuances in expression. This remarkable artwork from Bridgeman Images offers us a glimpse into 18th-century American society while celebrating both artistic excellence and historical significance for all who
