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 James Boswell, a prominent figure in Scottish history. The portrait, created by the talented artist Thomas Lawrence between 1790-95, captures the essence of this influential man. Boswell is depicted wearing a wig, which was a common fashion choice during that era. Known primarily as a lawyer and biographer of Samuel Johnson, Boswell's contribution to literature cannot be overstated. His meticulous research and vivid storytelling skills made him one of the most celebrated writers of his time. This image provides us with an intimate glimpse into the life of this literary genius. Boswell's profile reveals his distinctive features - notably his round face and robust build - earning him the reputation as "the fat man" among his contemporaries. However, it is through his words that he truly left an indelible mark on history. The inclusion of Boswell's signature and autograph in this photograph adds another layer of authenticity to this remarkable piece. It serves as a reminder not only of his talent but also highlights the importance placed on handwriting during that period. Displayed at the National Portrait Gallery in London, UK, this artwork stands as a testament to Boswell's enduring legacy. As we gaze upon this image today, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the brilliance and intellectual prowess that defined James Boswell – forever etched within these lines captured by Lawrence’s pencil on paper technique.
