Horse And Carriage Rain Raining Umbrella Umbrellas Regency
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 aquatint print, titled "A Bath Coach" takes us back to the early 19th century when horse-drawn carriages were a common mode of transportation. Created by George Hunt and published in 1820, this artwork showcases the skilled craftsmanship of Henry Thomas Alken. The scene depicted is both lively and atmospheric. As rain pours down from the darkened sky, we witness a group of people seeking shelter under their umbrellas while waiting for their coach. The wet cobblestone street glistens with reflections, adding an element of realism to the composition. The artist's attention to detail is remarkable; every carriage wheel and horse harness is intricately rendered. This print transports us back in time to an era characterized by elegance and refinement - the Georgian period or Regency era. It's fascinating how this piece captures not only a moment but also conveys a sense of movement and anticipation. One can almost hear the clip-clop sound of hooves on pavement as we imagine these travelers embarking on their journey through picturesque English countryside. Now part of Yale Center for British Art's Paul Mellon Collection in the USA, this exquisite aquatint invites us to appreciate not only its artistic merit but also its historical significance. It serves as a reminder that even amidst inclement weather, life goes on – journeys are undertaken, adventures unfold, and stories are written along those rainy roads traveled by horse-drawn coaches.
