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.

Le Geste Napolitain, 1763
EDITORS COMMENTS
by Pierre Etienne Moitte is a captivating print that takes us back to the streets of 18th century Naples, Italy. In this intriguing scene, we witness an emotional encounter between an elderly woman and a street peddler. The image portrays the daily life of ordinary people in Naples, with its bustling streets and diverse characters. The artist's attention to detail is evident as he captures the gestures and expressions of each individual involved. The old woman appears upset, her face etched with worry lines, while the peddler stands before her with a basket full of goods for sale. Moitte's skillful engraving technique brings depth and texture to the artwork, enhancing our connection to these figures from another era. The contrast between light and shadow adds drama to the composition, emphasizing their contrasting emotions. This print not only showcases Moitte's artistic talent but also serves as a historical document that sheds light on social dynamics during this period. It reminds us of the struggles faced by those who relied on street vending as their livelihoods while offering insight into the lives of common folk in 18th-century Europe. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, "Le Geste Napolitain" invites viewers to step into a different time and place – one filled with emotion, hardship, and resilience.
