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.

Waiting in The Fourth Room of the Apartments - A Glimpse into 17th Century French Court Life
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back to the opulent world of 1690s France, specifically inside the Palace of Versailles. Antoine Trouvain's series of etchings beautifully captures a suite of reception rooms where aristocrats and courtiers would gather during this period. In this particular scene, we find ourselves in The Fourth Room, witnessing an intriguing moment in daily life at court. Men and women from the upper class are engaged in a fashionable game, their elegant attire reflecting the grandeur that surrounded them. As they patiently wait for their turn to play, conversations flow effortlessly amidst lavish interiors adorned with exquisite details. The presence of Louis XIV, known as the Sun King, can almost be felt within these walls as his influence permeates every aspect of courtly existence. This image offers a glimpse into how power and privilege were intertwined during this era. Antoine Trouvain's masterful etching transports us back to a time when Versailles was not just a palace but also a stage for intricate social dynamics and political maneuvering. It serves as a reminder that even within such luxurious surroundings, life at court was not without its own set of rules and expectations. As we observe this snapshot from history through Trouvain's lens, we are reminded once again why Versailles remains an enduring symbol of elegance and sophistication.
