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 engraving, titled "Sir George Staunton, 1839" transports us back to the Victorian era, offering a glimpse into the life of an extraordinary individual. The portrait showcases Sir George Staunton, a renowned English traveller and Orientalist who left an indelible mark on history. In this three-quarter length depiction, Sir George stands tall with an air of confidence and wisdom. His gaze is piercing yet welcoming, hinting at the vast knowledge he possesses as an explorer and writer. Dressed in traditional Victorian attire, his costume speaks volumes about the time period in which he lived. The artist behind this masterpiece is William Overend Geller (fl. 1834-53), whose skillful hand has immortalized Sir George's likeness for generations to come. This print now resides in a private collection but continues to inspire all those who lay eyes upon it. Sir George Staunton's contributions to society extend far beyond his appearance captured in this engraving. As a prominent figure in academia and exploration during his time, he played a pivotal role in bridging cultural gaps between East and West through his extensive travels throughout Asia. This remarkable artwork serves as both a tribute to Sir George's legacy and a testament to the artistic talent that brings historical figures back to life through portraiture.
