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 vibrant and bustling print captures the lively atmosphere of a Horse Fair at Southampton in the early 19th century. Painted by renowned artist Thomas Rowlandson, this watercolour print showcases his exceptional talent for capturing both nature and human activity. The scene is set against a backdrop of picturesque English countryside, with towering trees providing shade to the crowd that has gathered for this trading event. The buildings of Southampton can be seen in the distance, adding a touch of urbanity to this otherwise rural setting. Horses take center stage as they are paraded and showcased by their owners, eager to sell these magnificent creatures to potential buyers. The market is teeming with traders and spectators alike, creating a colorful spectacle that reflects the vibrancy of trade during this time period. Amidst all the commotion, an inn stands prominently in the background - perhaps offering respite to weary travelers or serving as a meeting point for business negotiations. This horse fair was not just about commerce; it was also an opportunity for people from different walks of life to come together and engage in social interactions. Thomas Rowlandson's masterful brushwork brings every detail to life - from the intricate patterns on each horse's coat to the expressions on people's faces as they negotiate deals or simply enjoy watching these majestic animals. This print serves as a captivating window into history, transporting us back to an era where open-air markets like this were essential hubs of economic activity and community engagement.
