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.

Going for a Visit,
EDITORS COMMENTS
a captivating watercolor painting by Russian artist Boris Vasilievich Smirnov, depicts a heartwarming scene from Krasnoyarsk, Siberia, in 1904. The image captures the moment of departure as a family prepares to leave their home, bundled up against the cold weather. The father, dressed in a heavy coat and hat, carries an accordion, while his wife cradles their youngest child in her arms. The older children, bundled up in furs and hats, walk alongside, one holding onto an umbrella, the other carrying a small bag. The family's simple, wooden house with a red roof and white walls serves as the backdrop to this poignant moment. Smirnov's skillful use of pencil and watercolor creates a rich, textured image that captures the essence of the meeting of frontiers - the boundary between the warmth and familiarity of home and the vast, unknown world beyond. This painting is a precious piece of heritage art, offering a glimpse into the daily life of a family in early 20th century Russia, and a reminder of the universal experiences of love, family, and the passage of time. The painting is part of the collection of the Novosibirsk State Museum of Regional History and Folklife in Russia and can be found in the Library of Congress, Washington D.C. as well.
