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
In this photo print, we are transported back to the 19th century to witness a poignant scene depicted by German artist Carl Spitzweg. Titled "The Poor Poet" this oil on canvas masterpiece from 1839 captures the essence of poverty and artistic struggle. The painting showcases a modest room with minimal furnishings, where a disheveled poet finds solace in his craft. Dressed in worn-out clothes, he sits hunched over a desk cluttered with papers and quills, fully immersed in his writing. The dimly lit space further emphasizes the somber atmosphere surrounding him. Spitzweg's attention to detail is remarkable; every brushstroke conveys the hardships faced by creative souls during that era. The artist skillfully portrays not only physical destitution but also the emotional weight carried by those pursuing their artistic passions against all odds. This artwork serves as a powerful reminder of the challenges faced by artists throughout history and their unwavering dedication despite societal constraints. It invites us to reflect on our own pursuit of dreams and reminds us that creativity knows no boundaries or social status. "The Poor Poet" continues to resonate today as it did when it was first created, serving as an enduring symbol of resilience and determination for artists worldwide.
