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.

The Fool Dreaming Of The Land Of Milk And Honey
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating artwork by Wilhelm Stettler, created between 1660 and 1686. This small print, measuring just 11.5x10.5 cm, showcases Stettler's mastery of brush and Indian ink on paper. In this whimsical scene, we see a jester or court fool lost in his own imagination. With a mischievous grin on his face, he gazes out into the distance as if envisioning a utopian world filled with abundance and bliss - the fabled land of milk and honey. The intricate details of the drawing transport us to another time and place. A boat floats gently on calm waters beneath an expansive sky that seems to merge seamlessly with heaven itself. The biblical references are evident, evoking notions of paradise and divine blessings. Stettler's work captures the essence of dreams - their ethereal nature and ability to transport us beyond our everyday reality. It invites viewers to ponder the power of imagination and its role in shaping our desires for a better world. This piece also reflects Stettler's Swiss heritage, as he was born in Switzerland in 1643. His European background influences his portrayal of virtue versus vice within society while exploring themes of travel and exploration. Displayed at the Ashmolean Museum at the University of Oxford, "The Fool Dreaming Of The Land Of Milk And Honey" continues to captivate audiences with its dreamlike quality and thought-provoking symbolism.
