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.

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 lithograph, titled "Unequal Love, 17th Century" takes us back to a bygone era of love and rivalry. Created by the renowned Dutch artist Hendrik Goltzius in the late 16th century, this print showcases his exceptional talent for capturing human emotions through art. The scene depicts a young man and woman standing before each other, surrounded by symbols of wealth and status. The woman, exuding beauty and grace in her elaborate costume, holds out an offering of money towards her suitor. However, it is clear that their love is not equal; while she represents youth and allure, he embodies old age and wisdom. Goltzius's work here is both humorous and satirical as he explores the complexities of marriage choices during this time period. The caricature-like figures highlight the exaggerated differences between them: youth versus age, beauty versus experience. Through this artwork from Eduard Fuchs' book "Die Frau in der Karikatur" we are transported to a world where decisions about love were often influenced by wealth and social standing. It serves as a reminder that even centuries ago, these dilemmas were prevalent in society. As we gaze upon this historical masterpiece captured through engraving techniques with meticulous detail, we are reminded of the timeless themes it portrays - the eternal struggle between desire and practicality when choosing our partners in life.
