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
Nos Saltimbanques" (Our Acrobats) is a captivating lithograph by the renowned French artist Honore Daumier, created in the 19th century. This monochromatic masterpiece, with its striking contrasts of grey and white, invites us into the world of the circus and its mesmerizing performers. Daumier's depiction of acrobats in this caricature is both humorous and intriguing. The acrobats, with their determined expressions and focused bodies, are shown in the midst of their act, lifting one another high above the ground. The lettering "Nos Saltimbanques" adds a playful touch to the image, further emphasizing the performative nature of the scene. The acrobats, dressed in simple clothing, are depicted with a sense of gravity and seriousness that belies the lightheartedness of the title. This juxtaposition of form and content is a hallmark of Daumier's artistic style, which often employed parody and satire to critique society and its norms. This lithograph is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of France and the enduring appeal of the circus as a form of entertainment. Its black and white composition, reminiscent of an old photograph, adds to its historic and nostalgic charm. "Nos Saltimbanques" is a must-see for anyone interested in the history of art, the circus, or the human spirit. This image, with its timeless appeal and intriguing subject matter, continues to captivate and inspire viewers, more than a century after it was first created. This lithograph is currently housed in the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., where it is a beloved and cherished addition to their extensive collection of historic art.
