Age Of Reason Encyclopedist Enlightenment Inkstand Quill Siecle Des Lumieres Encyclopediste


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.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the essence of Denis Diderot, a prominent figure in French literature and philosophy during the Enlightenment era. Painted by Louis Michel van Loo in 1767, this oil on canvas print showcases Diderot's intellectual prowess and profound influence on society. Dressed in elegant attire, Diderot exudes an air of wisdom and contemplation. His piercing gaze reflects his deep thoughts and analytical mind. With an inkstand and quill placed prominently beside him, it is evident that writing was at the core of his being. As one of the key contributors to the Encyclopédie, a groundbreaking encyclopedia that aimed to disseminate knowledge across various disciplines, Diderot played a pivotal role in shaping intellectual discourse during his time. This portrait serves as a testament to his dedication as an encyclopedist. The painting's composition highlights both Diderot's individuality and connection to broader enlightenment ideals. The soft lighting illuminates his face while casting shadows that add depth to the image. The background hints at a library or study space, symbolizing not only Diderot's personal surroundings but also his commitment to expanding human understanding through literature. Displayed proudly within the Louvre Museum in Paris, France, this artwork stands as a reminder of Diderot's lasting legacy. It encapsulates an entire epoch known as "le siècle des lumières" (the Age of Enlightenment) when reason prevailed over superstition and knowledge became accessible to all. In
