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 vibrant and captivating coloured engraving titled "Cabriolet or Shelter versus Pelter" transports us back to 19th century England, where unpredictable weather was a constant challenge. The image showcases the stark contrast between two modes of transportation in the midst of a torrential downpour. In this bustling London scene, cobblestone streets glisten with raindrops as people scurry for cover. A cabriolet, an open horse-drawn carriage popular at the time, is shown struggling against the elements. Its passengers huddle together under a flimsy shelter that provides little protection from the relentless pelter of rain. On the other hand, we see a clever solution offered by our German counterparts. A stylish umbrella-shaped cover shields another group of travelers from getting drenched by using innovative waterproof technology. This ingenious invention highlights Germany's reputation for engineering excellence and practicality. The print not only captures a moment in history but also serves as an advertisement for this revolutionary product. It emphasizes how embracing scientific methods and meteorological knowledge can enhance daily life even amidst inclement weather conditions. As droplets cascade around them, these contrasting scenes symbolize more than just transport options; they represent resilience and adaptability in face of adversity. Whether it be through traditional English ways or cutting-edge German innovation, finding shelter from nature's fury remains essential across Europe. This intriguing artwork invites us to reflect on how different cultures tackle challenges posed by their unique climates while showcasing Fine Art Finder's vast collection that celebrates artistry intertwined
