23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
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 takes us back to the heart of the French Revolution in 1792. The image captures a bustling street scene, with a vibrant crowd gathered around a vendor selling copies of the radical newspaper L'Ami du Peuple. Published by Jean-Paul Marat, this publication was known for its fiery and provocative content that fueled the rebellion against the monarchy. The watercolor by Charles Monnet beautifully depicts the energy and chaos of this historical moment. The city facade serves as a backdrop, showcasing the late 18th-century architecture that witnessed these revolutionary events unfold. In this snapshot, we witness commerce intertwining with political fervor as people eagerly purchase their copies of L'Ami du Peuple. The mob-like atmosphere hints at the intensity and passion that characterized this period in French history. It is fascinating to see how ordinary citizens were actively engaged in shaping their destiny through access to information provided by newspapers like L'Ami du Peuple. As we gaze upon this artwork, it transports us back to an era when France was on the brink of transformation. This print not only offers aesthetic pleasure but also invites reflection on how media can influence societal change and ignite revolutions.
