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 captures a glimpse into the bustling silver mine of La Croix-aux-Mines in Lorraine, France during the 16th century. The image showcases the arduous process of transporting and delivering coal for the nearby forges. In this detailed pen and ink drawing, created by Heinrich Gross or Groff, we see a village nestled amidst a rural landscape. A cart pulled by horses takes center stage as it carries wicker baskets filled with coal. The team of horses is harnessed together, their muscles straining under the weight they bear. A worker stands beside the cart, shovel in hand, ready to load more coal onto it. His leather apron suggests he is prepared for hard labor in this mining environment. Behind him lies an imposing forge where skilled artisans would transform this coal into valuable resources. The composition exudes a sense of industry and hard work as workers go about their tasks diligently. This snapshot from history provides us with insight into the daily lives of those who toiled within these mines centuries ago. Preserved within Bibliotheque de l'Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Paris, France, this drawing serves as both a study and sketchbook entry capturing an important moment in time. It reminds us of the significant role that mining played during the Renaissance period while showcasing Gross or Groff's artistic talent and attention to detail.
