FSC real wood frame with double mounted 16x12 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
The Palais du Corps Legislatif, now known as the Palais Bourbon and home to the Assemblee Nationale, is depicted in this oil painting by Jacques Guiaud. The artwork captures a significant moment in history - the last sitting of the Legislative Body on September 4th, 1870. The grandeur of French architecture is showcased through the pedimented portico and statues adorning the exterior of the building. This neo-classical masterpiece stands as a symbol of government and national assembly. As we gaze upon this scene, we are transported back to a time marked by turmoil and change. The Franco-Prussian War loomed over Paris, while revolution stirred within its streets. The crowd gathered outside reflects both curiosity and concern for what lies ahead. Guiaud's meticulous brushstrokes bring life to every detail - from the intricate carvings on the pediment to each individual figure in the crowd. It is a testament to his skill as an artist that we can almost hear whispers among legislators inside these hallowed halls. This print serves as a reminder of our rich history and how it continues to shape our present. It invites us to reflect on moments when power shifts hands, nations face challenges, and democracy endures against all odds.
