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
Interior of the Lemercier Lithographic Printing House," is a stunning glimpse into the past of the art world. Created by French artist Charles Villemin, the image transports us to the heart of a lithographic printing house in the 19th century. The print, which measures approximately 13.5 x 18.5 inches, is a lithotint on off-white wove paper, produced from two stones. The composition showcases the intricate and labor-intensive process of lithographic printing. Men and women, dressed in typical work attire of the era, are engrossed in their tasks. Some are meticulously inking plates, while others are carefully feeding paper through the printing press. The room is filled with an air of focused intensity, as each worker contributes to the creation of a single print. The printing house itself is a marvel of industrial architecture. High ceilings, large windows, and exposed beams create an open and spacious environment. The room is bathed in natural light, which illuminates the intricacies of the printing process. The use of monochrome, with its stark contrasts of white and black, adds to the print's timeless and evocative quality. This lithograph is a rare and valuable document of the past, offering a unique perspective on the art and industry of lithographic printing in the 19th century. It is a testament to the skill, dedication, and collaborative spirit of the artists and workers who brought these intricate and beautiful prints to life." The Art Institute of Chicago is fortunate to have this important work in its permanent collection, adding to its rich and diverse holdings of prints and drawings. This image is not only a valuable addition to the institution's extensive collection but also a fascinating glimpse into the history of art and the art of printmaking.
