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
In this print titled "Russian Peasant, 1889" we are transported to late 19th century Russia, witnessing a humble farmer diligently sowing seeds in his vast field. The wood engraving, created by an American artist named Thure de Thulstrup in the same year, beautifully captures the essence of rural life during that era. The central figure of the image is the Russian peasant himself, adorned with a long beard and a distinguished mustache. His weathered face reflects years of hard work under the sun's relentless gaze. Dressed in traditional clothing and sturdy boots, he stands tall amidst his bountiful harvest-to-be. The composition exudes tranquility as we observe this solitary man carefully scattering seeds across the fertile soil. With each motion of his hand, hope for a prosperous yield is instilled into every grain that falls from his grasp. This wood engraving not only serves as a visual representation of agricultural practices but also offers us a glimpse into the resilience and determination embedded within Russian peasants at that time. It reminds us of their unwavering commitment to provide sustenance for themselves and their communities despite facing numerous challenges. As we admire this historical artwork from The Granger Collection's archives, let us appreciate the invaluable contributions made by these unsung heroes who toiled tirelessly on their fields - nurturing both crops and traditions that have shaped Russia's rich cultural heritage throughout centuries.
