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.

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 mesmerizing painting "Orpheus and Euridice" by Catharine Adelaide Sparkes. The artwork, measuring 84x74 cm, is housed in the Wolverhampton Art Gallery located in West Midlands, UK. The image transports us to the enchanting world of Greek mythology, where we witness a poignant moment between Orpheus and his beloved wife Euridice. Orpheus, a talented musician known for his mastery of the harp, stands before us with deep sorrow etched on his face. His melodic tunes have charmed even the creatures of nature. Euridice appears as a graceful nymph beside her husband, her delicate features reflecting both love and anguish. Their connection is palpable as they share an intimate gaze amidst a mythical cave setting that symbolizes their journey into darkness. The story unfolds with tragedy looming over this couple's fate - Euridice's untimely death leads Orpheus to venture into the underworld in search of her soul. This classical tale explores themes of love, loss, and ultimate sacrifice. Sparkes' skillful brushstrokes bring life to this mythological scene while capturing its emotional depth. Through this print from Fine Art Finder by Bridgeman Images, viewers can appreciate not only the artist's talent but also delve into the rich narrative woven within Greek mythology itself.
