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 captures a significant moment in American history - the first prayer led by Chaplain Jacob Duche in the First Continental Congress. Set against the backdrop of Carpenters Hall, Philadelphia, in September 1774, this image transports us back to a time when the foundations of a nation were being laid. In this mezzotint from 1848, we witness an assembly of men who would become known as the founding fathers. They gather with purpose and determination, seeking political action and unity for their colonies. As Chaplain Duche takes center stage, his presence exudes reverence and solemnity. The interior setting adds to the gravity of the occasion. The room is filled with anticipation as these colonists come together to shape their shared destiny. It is a reminder that even amidst great uncertainty and division, faith can serve as a unifying force. Chaplain Duche's role as minister and preacher symbolizes not only spiritual guidance but also moral leadership during this pivotal period. His prayer serves as both an act of devotion and an invocation for wisdom and strength in navigating turbulent times. This powerful image reminds us of our nation's origins - born out of collective vision, resilience, and unwavering belief in freedom. It stands as a testament to those who dared to dream big and laid down the groundwork for future generations to build upon.
