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
This print titled "Was not that a dainty Dish To set before the King?, 1880" takes us back to the enchanting world of nursery rhymes and children's literature in the 19th century. Created by renowned artist Randolph Caldecott, this illustration is part of his work in "Sing a Song of Sixpence", published by George Routledge & Sons in London. The image transports us to a vibrant dining table where an array of colorful birds have gathered around a magnificent pie. As we delve into the scene, we can almost hear their melodious voices as they begin to sing upon opening the pie. The blackbirds take center stage, their beautiful plumage contrasting against the backdrop of richly decorated furniture fit for royalty. Caldecott's attention to detail brings this whimsical moment to life, capturing both the joyous atmosphere and intricate expressions on each bird's face. This artwork not only showcases his artistic prowess but also highlights his ability to create engaging illustrations that captivate both children and adults alike. As we admire this piece, it serves as a reminder of how literature and art intertwine seamlessly, transporting us into fantastical worlds filled with imagination and wonder.
