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.

The Laundress, 186[3?]
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating oil painting by Honore Daumier that captures the essence of 19th-century Parisian life. In this masterpiece, Daumier skillfully portrays a hardworking washerwoman on the banks of the River Seine. The artist's attention to detail and use of color bring this scene to life, transporting viewers back in time. The laundress stands gracefully on a set of stairs leading down to the river, her vibrant clothing contrasting against the muted tones of her surroundings. With focused determination, she diligently scrubs away at a piece of laundry, showcasing her dedication to her craft. Behind her, we catch glimpses of other women engaged in similar tasks along the quai Danjou. Daumier's portrayal not only highlights the laborious nature of this occupation but also sheds light on social dynamics during that era. The presence of children playing nearby suggests that these women often had little choice but to bring their families along while they worked tirelessly to make ends meet. This artwork serves as an important reminder of both historical and geographical significance. It offers us a glimpse into everyday life in 19th-century France and pays homage to those who labored behind-the-scenes to keep society running smoothly. Displayed proudly at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, "The Laundress" continues to captivate audiences with its timeless beauty and thought-provoking narrative about female laborers in history.
