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
The captivating print titled "Milk Below Maids, Plate 2 from the Cries of London" takes us back in time to the bustling streets of 18th-century England. Created by Francis Wheatley and beautifully colored, this engraving captures a scene filled with charm and authenticity. In this lively depiction, we see a group of milkmaids dressed in traditional bonnets and yokes as they go about their daily routine. With their churns full of fresh milk, they skillfully navigate through the crowded city streets, calling out their melodic cry: "Milk below!". The artist's attention to detail is remarkable; every element within the composition tells a story. The young urchin eagerly follows behind the milkmaids, ready to assist them with any heavy loads or errands that may arise along the way. This enchanting engraving not only showcases Wheatley's artistic talent but also provides us with a glimpse into an era long gone. It transports us to a time when street vendors were an integral part of everyday life, adding color and vibrancy to urban landscapes. As we admire this print from Fine Art Finder, let our imaginations wander back in time and immerse ourselves in the sights and sounds of old London.
