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
In this intriguing historical print titled 'The Russian Bear and her Invincible Rider Encountering the British Legion', we are transported back to the year 1791, a time of political tension and international relations between Britain and Russia. The satirical drawing depicts Potemkin in hussar's uniform riding Catherine the Great as they boldly approach George III and his ministers, who are armed with spears.
This scene captures a moment of confrontation and power play between two formidable empires, each asserting their dominance on the world stage. The image symbolizes the complex dynamics of diplomacy, trade, and military might that defined European politics in the 18th century.
Catherine II of Russia is portrayed as a strong and commanding figure, embodying the strength of the Russian bear. Her companion Potemkin exudes confidence as they confront their British counterparts with unwavering determination.
As we gaze upon this historic artwork, we are reminded of the intricate web of alliances and rivalries that shaped global affairs during this period. It serves as a fascinating glimpse into a bygone era when empires clashed and leaders vied for supremacy on an international scale.
