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.

The Angelus, 1857-1859
EDITORS COMMENTS
by Jean Francois Millet is a captivating snapshot of rural life in 19th century France. This color print beautifully captures the essence of agriculture and farming, showcasing the hard work and piety that defined the lives of peasants during this era. In this painting, we see a female farmer and a male laborer pausing from their toil in a field. With heads bowed and hands clasped in prayer, they engage in a moment of deep religious devotion known as "The Angelus". The wheelbarrow nearby suggests their occupation as farmers, while the fork symbolizes their connection to the land. Millet's attention to detail brings out the poverty-stricken reality faced by these individuals. Their worn-out clothes and tired expressions reflect the hardships endured by those living off the land. Yet amidst their struggles, there is an undeniable sense of dignity and faith that shines through. This artwork serves as both a social commentary on rural life at that time and an exploration of Christian spirituality. Millet's ability to capture such profound emotions within his subjects makes this piece truly timeless. "The Angelus" reminds us not only of our agricultural roots but also encourages reflection on our own spiritual connections. It stands as an enduring testament to Millet's skill as an artist who was able to depict both human struggle and resilience with great sensitivity.
