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
Saddle," a captivating work of art by Hal Blakeley, dates back to the 1940s and offers a glimpse into the rich heritage of American equestrian culture. This exquisite watercolor and graphite on paper creation, housed in the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., showcases Blakeley's mastery of the decorative arts and his keen eye for detail. The saddle, a period item from the 1930s or 1940s, is depicted in all its ornamental glory. The brown leather saddle, with its intricate patterns and textures, is brought to life through Blakeley's skillful use of color and shade. The artist's attentiveness to the saddle's design elements, from the tooled leatherwork to the subtle details of the stitching, is evident in every brushstroke. The saddle, a necessary piece of riding equipment for horse riders of the time, is not only functional but also a work of art in itself. Blakeley's rendering of the saddle is a testament to the beauty and craftsmanship that went into creating these items during the 1930s and 1940s. This artwork, part of the Index of American Design, is a valuable addition to the National Gallery of Art's collection and a reminder of the rich artistic and cultural heritage of the United States. The image transports us back in time, allowing us to appreciate the elegance and sophistication of a bygone era, while also highlighting the timeless appeal of the equestrian tradition. Hal Blakeley's "Saddle" is not only an impressive work of art but also a window into the past, offering us a glimpse into the decorative arts and design of the 20th century United States.
