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. Overall outside dimensions are 23x19 inches (584x482mm). 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 vibrant and captivating print, titled "Illustration for Le Rire" takes us back to the 19th century with its rich colours and intricate details. The artwork, created by an anonymous French School artist, showcases the power of satire and caricature in conveying social commentary. The image is filled with a multitude of humorous elements that engage the viewer's imagination. We see prisoners playing musical instruments while being held captive, adding a touch of absurdity to their plight. A comical depiction of Joan of Arc can be spotted amidst the chaos, highlighting political tensions between France and England. The satirical nature of this illustration becomes evident as we observe various symbols representing different nations. The Union Jack flutters alongside the French flag, symbolizing the strained relationship between Great Britain and France at that time. Additionally, references to Germany are scattered throughout the composition, poking fun at German culture and politics. Religion also plays a role in this piece as a vicar is seen amusingly playing his flute while surrounded by girls. This juxtaposition adds another layer of social critique within this satirical cartoon. Overall, this print from "Le Rire" magazine serves as both entertainment and social commentary on European affairs during the late 19th century. Its clever use of humour and caricatures invites viewers to reflect on political tensions while appreciating its artistic brilliance.
