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
In this photo print, we are transported back in time to witness a poignant scene from one of William Shakespeare's greatest tragedies - "King Lear". The engraving, created in 1892 by THEPALMER for the revised American edition of "Character sketches of romance, fiction and the drama" captures the essence of this timeless play. At the center of the composition stands King Lear himself, his regal figure exuding both power and vulnerability. His weathered face reflects a lifetime of wisdom and sorrow as he engages with his loyal companion - the fool. Dressed in motley attire, the fool brings a touch of levity to an otherwise somber moment. Their contrasting expressions symbolize their distinct roles within society; while Lear grapples with his own descent into madness after dividing his kingdom amongst his daughters, it is through jests and riddles that the fool offers him solace. The meticulous details etched into every line showcase THEPALMER's skillful craftsmanship. From Lear's flowing robes to each strand of hair on their heads, no element is overlooked. The stark contrast between light and shadow further enhances our understanding of these complex characters' inner turmoil. This evocative print serves as a reminder not only of Shakespeare's enduring legacy but also how art can transcend time itself. It invites us to delve deeper into King Lear's tragic journey while appreciating THEPALMER's contribution to capturing its essence over a century ago.
