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.

The Dissolute Household, 1668
EDITORS COMMENTS
by Jan Havicksz. Steen is a captivating oil painting that offers a glimpse into the chaotic and lively atmosphere of a Dutch household in the 17th century. The scene depicts an unruly gathering filled with merriment, disorder, and indulgence. In this bustling interior, servants and maids can be seen engaging in various activities. A drunken man slumps on a chair while clutching his wine glass, surrounded by others who are equally intoxicated. A violinist plays energetically in the corner, adding to the festive ambiance. Children roam freely amidst the chaos, seemingly unfazed by their surroundings. The room is filled with smoke from pipes and cigarettes as people indulge in smoking and drinking games. A mischievous monkey perches on top of a table while observing the revelry below. Playing cards are scattered across another table where two men engage in an intense game. Amidst all this disorderly conduct, one cannot help but notice a loyal dog sitting patiently at its master's feet. Jan Havicksz. Steen's mastery lies not only in capturing human behavior but also infusing humor into his scenes of everyday life. "The Dissolute Household" serves as both entertainment and social commentary on excesses within society during that time period. This remarkable print allows us to appreciate Steen's talent for storytelling through artistry while offering us an intriguing window into Dutch history and culture.
