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 Gleaner, 1877
EDITORS COMMENTS
by Jules Breton is a captivating oil painting that depicts the timeless struggle of rural laborers in France during the late 19th century. In this powerful portrait, a female peasant worker is shown amidst a golden field, carrying sheaves of corn and wheat on her shoulder. The artist skillfully captures her strength and determination as she engages in manual work. Breton's social realist approach brings attention to the often overlooked lives of those who toiled in the fields to sustain their communities. The woman's weathered face tells stories of hardship and resilience, reflecting the harsh realities faced by peasants during this era. The composition exudes rustic simplicity, with warm earth tones dominating the scene. The play of light adds depth and texture to each stroke of paint, enhancing the realism and emotional impact of the artwork. "The Gleaner" serves as both an homage to these unsung heroes and a commentary on societal inequality. It reminds us that behind every crop we consume lies countless hours of backbreaking labor performed by individuals like this gleaner. This print from Fine Art Finder allows us to appreciate Breton's masterful technique up close while also honoring his dedication to portraying ordinary people with dignity and respect.
