FSC real wood frame with double mounted 16x12 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 23x19 inches (584x482mm). 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 showcases a rare musical instrument known as the Dulcimer, dating back to 1723. Created by Arnold van Westerhout, this copper engraving beautifully captures the essence of this unique stringed percussion instrument. The image depicts a woman playing the dulcimer on the shore of an ocean, her bare feet immersed in the sand. The player is seen passionately hammering away at the strings with precision and skill, creating enchanting melodies that resonate with the crashing waves in the background. Her focused expression reveals her deep connection to both music and nature. Westerhout's attention to detail is evident in every stroke of his engraving technique, highlighting not only the intricate design of the dulcimer but also capturing subtle nuances such as ripples on water and wind gently blowing through her bonnet. This artwork from The Granger Collection transports us back in time, allowing us to appreciate both historical craftsmanship and artistic talent. It serves as a reminder of how music has always been intertwined with our surroundings - even centuries ago - providing solace and joy amidst nature's beauty. Whether you are a lover of classical instruments or simply appreciate fine artistry, this stunning print will undoubtedly add elegance and charm to any space it graces.
