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 print, titled "Two nude children playing with a leaf" takes us back to the 18th century France. Created by Pierre Alexandre Aveline, this etching showcases the innocence and joy of childhood in a simple yet profound manner. In this scene, two naked boys are engrossed in their playfulness as they interact with nature's gift - a delicate leaf. Their carefree spirits are beautifully captured as they explore the world around them, unaffected by societal norms or constraints. The artist skillfully portrays their genuine curiosity and wonderment through intricate details. The composition is enhanced by the presence of a pair of doves nearby, symbolizing peace and harmony. This subtle inclusion adds depth to the image, suggesting that even amidst simplicity, there exists an inherent beauty worth cherishing. Displayed within "New Book of Children" from 1720-60 at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this artwork serves as a timeless reminder of our shared human experience across centuries. It invites viewers to reflect on the universal themes of childhood innocence and freedom that transcend time and place. Aveline's masterful use of black and white creates a striking contrast that emphasizes both lightness and darkness within this enchanting scene. As we gaze upon these young souls immersed in playfulness without inhibition or self-consciousness, we can't help but be reminded of our own cherished memories from childhood – moments filled with laughter, exploration, and boundless imagination.
