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
is a captivating snapshot of a momentous occasion in history. Painted by Konstantin Apollonovich Savitsky, this watercolor and gouache print on cardboard transports us back to the early days of industrialization in Russia. The scene unfolds with soldiers and militia lining up along the train tracks, eagerly awaiting the arrival of the steam train. The atmosphere is charged with anticipation as spectators gather around, horses galloping in excitement. It is a ceremony that marks progress and civil engineering at its finest. As the majestic locomotive approaches, everyone erupts into cheers and salutes. This historic event symbolizes not only technological advancement but also unity among people from all walks of life. The painting captures both the grandeur of the moment and the sense of pride felt by those witnessing it. Savitsky's attention to detail brings every element to life – from the meticulously painted regiment standing tall to each individual spectator caught up in this extraordinary gathering. The artist's use of color adds vibrancy to an already electric atmosphere. This artwork belongs to the renowned Peredvizhniki group, known for their realistic portrayals of Russian society during this era. With its historical significance and artistic brilliance, "The First Train" serves as a reminder of how far we have come through innovation and human ingenuity.
