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 showcases the painting "Philoctetes, 1818-1820" by Francesco Hayez. The artwork can be found in the esteemed collection of Museo d Arte Moderna in Bologna, Italy. Hayez, a prominent figure of the Milanese school, masterfully depicts this legendary character from Greek mythology. Philoctetes is portrayed as a hero tormented by his own suffering and isolation during the Trojan War. The artist's use of oil on canvas brings out every intricate detail and emotion within the piece. The painting draws inspiration from Homer's epic poems, the Iliad and Odyssey, where Philoctetes plays a significant role. He was an archer who possessed Hercules' bow and arrows but was abandoned on an uninhabited island due to a festering wound that emitted an unbearable stench. In this romanticized portrayal, Hayez captures Philoctetes' physical pain as well as his emotional turmoil through vivid colors and dramatic lighting. It serves as both an allegory for human suffering and a testament to resilience in times of adversity. With its rich historical context and artistic brilliance, this print transports viewers into ancient Greece while simultaneously showcasing Hayez's mastery of fine art imagery. A true treasure for any admirer of classical mythology or lovers of Italian Renaissance paintings alike!
