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
. This print takes us back to the opulent world of 1796, where fashion knew no bounds. In this delightful caricature drawn by Sewer after James Gillray, we witness a fashionable lady on her way to a grand ball in Britain. Seated comfortably in a sedan chair, she is accompanied by an umbrella holder who dutifully shields the ridiculously high feather perched atop her extravagant hat. The image offers a glimpse into the bizarre and comical aspects of European fashion during this era. The exaggerated proportions and flamboyant attire reflect the excesses that characterized high society at the time. It serves as both entertainment and social commentary, highlighting how individuals would go to great lengths to stand out from the crowd. James Gillray, renowned for his satirical illustrations, captures every intricate detail with his masterful hand. Through his artistry, he invites us to marvel at the audacity of fashion trends while subtly poking fun at their absurdity. Preserved by Hulton Archive/Getty Images, this portrait transports us back two centuries ago when hair was towering and women's clothing defied gravity.
