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 print captures the solemnity and vulnerability of Cardinal Richelieu, one of history's most influential figures, on his deathbed. Painted by Philippe de Champaigne, this oil on canvas masterpiece evokes a sense of melancholy as it immortalizes the final moments of a man who shaped the course of French politics and power. Cardinal Richelieu's weary face is adorned with a nightcap, emphasizing his frailty in his last hours. His long white beard and distinguished mustache are testaments to a life filled with wisdom and experience. The artist skillfully portrays the cardinal's contemplative gaze, hinting at the weighty thoughts that may have occupied his mind during this poignant time. The painting exudes an aura of quietude and introspection, inviting viewers to reflect upon mortality and the transient nature of human existence. It serves as a reminder that even those who wield immense influence eventually succumb to their mortal limits. Displayed at Institut de France in Paris, this artwork stands as a testament to Cardinal Richelieu's enduring legacy. As we observe this profound portrayal, we cannot help but be reminded of our own mortality and contemplate how our actions will shape our own legacies. This photograph print from Fine Art Finder allows us to bring home a piece of history while honoring Cardinal Richelieu's memory—a timeless symbol not only for art enthusiasts but also for those fascinated by political intrigue and historical significance.
