Timon Of Athens
Greek misanthrope Timon (431 BC 404 BC) converses with another man, circa 405 BC. It was said that he spent all his money on his friends, who then abandoned him in his poverty, resulting in his conversion to bitterness and cynicism. He was the inspiration for Shakespeares play Timon of Athens. From a drawing by Pinelli. (Photo by Hulton Archive/Getty Images)

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 ancient Greece, capturing a poignant moment between two men. The central figure is none other than Timon of Athens, the Greek misanthrope whose tragic story has inspired countless works of art and literature throughout history. Timon, portrayed here with his distinguished beard and mature demeanor, engages in conversation with another man against a backdrop of early civilization. Clad in traditional sandals and a flowing cape, he exudes an air of wisdom and experience. The image beautifully encapsulates the essence of Timon's tale - a man who once lavishly spent all his wealth on friends who ultimately abandoned him when he fell into poverty. This betrayal led to his transformation into a bitter cynic, forever disillusioned by human nature. The drawing by Pinelli captures the emotional depth within Timon's eyes as he converses with his companion. It serves as a powerful reminder that even in ancient times, themes such as friendship, trust, and betrayal resonated deeply within society. As we gaze upon this thought-provoking photograph from Hulton Archive/Getty Images' collection at Fine Art Storehouse, we are transported back to an era where personal struggles were universal. It reminds us that timeless stories like Timon's continue to captivate audiences across generations through various artistic mediums – including Shakespeare's renowned play "Timon of Athens. "
