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 Sower, c. 1865
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating pastel and crayon masterpiece by Jean-Francois Millet that captures the essence of rural life in 19th-century France. This stunning print, now housed at the Walters Art Museum in Baltimore, USA, showcases Millet's exceptional talent for atmospheric and naturalistic depictions. In this artwork, we witness a provincial farmhand diligently sowing seeds across vast fields with utmost care and precision. The softness of the pastel hues adds to the overall tranquility of the scene, evoking a sense of calmness amidst nature's beauty. Millet's realist approach beautifully portrays the daily labor and agrarian lifestyle prevalent during that era. The image transports us to springtime when new beginnings are embraced with hope and optimism. The man's focused expression reveals his dedication towards his work as he handles each seed delicately. His presence symbolizes not only hard work but also represents an entire community dependent on agriculture for their livelihoods. Millet was part of the Barbizon School movement which sought to capture rural life authentically while celebrating its inherent simplicity and charm. "The Sower" exemplifies this artistic style through loose brushwork that conveys both movement and emotion. This timeless piece serves as a reminder of our connection to nature and highlights the importance of agricultural labor in sustaining societies throughout history. It stands as a testament to Millet's mastery in capturing human experiences within landscapes while showcasing French realism at its finest.
