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.

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
The captivating print depicts Lucien de Rubempre, a character from Honore de Balzac's renowned novel Les Illusions perdues, in a state of profound sorrow. The engraving beautifully captures the essence of his overwhelming grief. Seated in an elegant armchair, Lucien is portrayed as a man burdened by pain and sadness. His posture reflects the weight of his emotions as he slumps forward, seemingly crushed by the weight of his sorrows. The lines etched on his face reveal a depth of suffering that is palpable to the viewer. Lucien's ambitious nature is evident even in this moment of despair. Aspiring to make his mark as a poet in Paris, he embodies both determination and vulnerability. This duality adds complexity to his character and makes him all the more relatable. Intriguingly, there is also a hint of melancholy elegance surrounding Lucien; perhaps it stems from the cigar delicately held between his fingers or maybe it emanates from within him - an aura that encapsulates both beauty and tragedy. This powerful illustration serves as a poignant reminder of the human capacity for resilience amidst adversity. It invites us to reflect on our own struggles and aspirations while immersing ourselves in Balzac's rich literary world.
