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 showcases "An Allegory of Air" by Ferdinand van Kessel, a Dutch painter from the 17th century. The oil on copper masterpiece measures 56x73.6 cm and is currently held in a private collection. The photograph was taken by eRafael Valls Gallery in London, UK. In this allegorical painting, van Kessel beautifully depicts the element of air through various symbolic elements. At the center, we see Apollo's chariot soaring through the sky, representing divine inspiration and creativity. Surrounding it is an armillary sphere, symbolizing celestial movements and knowledge. The artist skillfully incorporates a diverse range of birds to further emphasize the theme of air. Feathers gracefully float around as an eagle majestically spreads its wings while a pheasant, parrot, ostrich, peacock, and turkey add vibrant splashes of color to the composition. Van Kessel's attention to detail is evident in his meticulous rendering of each bird species with precision and accuracy. Through this artwork, he invites viewers to contemplate the ethereal nature of air and its significance in our lives. This print captures not only van Kessel's artistic brilliance but also serves as a testament to Bridgeman Images' commitment to preserving fine art for future generations to appreciate and admire.
