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 Gustave Courbet's masterpiece, "The Great Bridge" painted in 1864. The oil on canvas artwork measures 95x127.5 cm and is housed at the prestigious Yale University Art Gallery in New Haven, CT, USA. "The Great Bridge" depicts a stunning landscape featuring a majestic arch bridge spanning over a flowing river with cascading waterfalls below. The meticulous brushstrokes bring the scene to life, capturing the serene beauty of nature. Intriguingly, amidst this picturesque setting, a lone figure can be seen leading two donkeys across the bridge. This inclusion adds an element of human presence and activity within an otherwise tranquil environment. Courbet's attention to detail is evident as he masterfully captures the architectural grandeur of the bridge and its reflection shimmering on the water's surface. The play of light and shadow further enhances the depth and realism of this remarkable composition. "The Great Bridge" invites viewers to immerse themselves in its breathtaking scenery while contemplating themes such as man-made structures harmoniously coexisting with nature or perhaps symbolizing journeys and crossings both literal and metaphorical. This extraordinary piece by Courbet continues to captivate art enthusiasts worldwide for its ability to transport them into a world where beauty meets craftsmanship seamlessly.
