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.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This still life painting, titled "Still Life with Silver and Gold Plate, Shells, and a Sword" transports us back to the fourth quarter of the 17th century. Created by French artist Meiffren Conte, this oil on canvas masterpiece showcases his exceptional talent for capturing intricate details and evoking a sense of opulence. The composition features an array of luxurious objects arranged meticulously on a table. A gleaming silver salver takes center stage, reflecting the warm glow of candlelight. Surrounding it are exquisite gold-plated plates adorned with delicate ornaments. The artist's skillful brushstrokes bring these precious metals to life, making them appear almost tangible. Adding depth and texture to the scene are various seashells scattered across the tablecloth. Each shell is intricately painted with vibrant colors that mimic their natural beauty. Amongst these shells lies a sword—a symbol of warfare and power—providing an unexpected contrast amidst the elegance. Conte's attention to detail extends even further as he captures every minute element in this still life: from mother-of-pearl accents on some shells to subtle reflections dancing off polished surfaces. Through his artistry, he invites viewers into a world where wealth meets nature in perfect harmony. Now housed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this painting serves as a testament to both historical craftsmanship and artistic mastery. It allows us to appreciate not only the beauty found in everyday objects but also how art can transcend time by preserving moments from centuries past.
