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 captures a scene from the pastoral farce "Damon & Phillida" first performed in Haymarket in 1729. Created by artist Gerard Vandergucht around 1730, this frontispiece showcases the essence of rural life in the 18th century. The image depicts a comical moment between Damon and Phillida, two central characters of the play. In this whimsical portrayal, we see Damon holding a walking stick while Phillida stands beside him under a majestic tree. Both figures are dressed in rustic attire, emphasizing their connection to nature. Despite the lighthearted atmosphere, there is an underlying sense of melancholy as Phillida appears to be crying. The monochrome aesthetic adds depth and character to this engraving, highlighting every intricate detail with precision. Vandergucht's skillful technique brings out the emotions on each face and captures the essence of these fictional characters. As we observe this artwork, we can't help but imagine ourselves transported back to that era - witnessing an entertaining opera performance amidst nature's beauty. This print serves as a window into history, allowing us to appreciate not only Colley Cibber's work but also Gerard Vandergucht's talent for capturing moments frozen in time.
