Organ Player

23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame

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 print showcases the remarkable portrait of William Croft, meticulously engraved by the talented George Vertue. The image captures the essence of this renowned English composer and organist at Westminster Abbey, immortalizing his contribution to music history. In this half-length portrait, Croft exudes an air of elegance and sophistication. His fashion sense is emblematic of the Georgian era, with a stylish oval wig adorning his head. The attention to detail in capturing his facial features is truly commendable; every line etched on his face tells a story of passion and dedication to his craft. The composition skillfully highlights Croft's role as an organ player, emphasizing both his technical prowess and artistic expression. Through this engraving, we are transported back in time to witness him commanding the keys with grace and precision. As we gaze upon this extraordinary piece from our private collection, it serves as a reminder that art has no expiration date. Despite being created centuries ago by Thomas Murray after George Vertue's original work, its power still resonates today. This print not only celebrates William Croft's musical genius but also pays homage to the mastery of engraving as an art form.
