Cutting Knife Trimming


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.

Old Barty the Besom Maker

EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating portrait captured by Henry Perlee Parker in pencil and watercolor on paper. The artwork, measuring 19.0x26.5 cm, can be found at the Laing Art Gallery in Newcastle-upon-Tyne, UK. The image showcases Old Barty engrossed in his craft as he meticulously trims a besom broom with a knife. His weathered face tells tales of experience and wisdom gained over years of dedication to his trade. The artist's attention to detail brings out every line and wrinkle on Old Barty's face, revealing the hardships endured throughout his life. In this intimate portrayal, we witness Old Barty taking a momentary break from work to enjoy a pipe while surrounded by tools of his trade. The smoke gently wafts around him, adding an ethereal quality to the scene. Parker skillfully captures not only the physical appearance but also the essence of this hardworking individual through delicate strokes and subtle shades of color. This evocative sketch transports us back in time, allowing us to appreciate the craftsmanship that was once so prevalent. This remarkable piece stands as a testament to both Parker's artistic talent and Old Barty's resilience as he continues his laborious task amidst challenging circumstances. It serves as a reminder of the unsung heroes who dedicated their lives to traditional trades that have now become rare relics of our past.
