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.

Santos Retablos, 1936
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating work of art created by American artist Maude Valle. This masterpiece, dating back to the 1930s, is a watercolor, colored pencil, and graphite drawing on paperboard with a wooden frame. The intricately designed altarpiece, also known as retablos, showcases a vibrant and multicolored depiction of various Catholic saints. The image transports us back in time to the 1930s and 1940s in the United States, where the influence of Catholicism was deeply rooted in the culture. Valle's artwork reflects the rich heritage of this period, with its decorative arts and design elements that embodied the spirit of the era. The retablo is adorned with a collection of Santos, or holy images, including male and female saints, children, and even animals. The saints are depicted in various poses, some in quiet contemplation, while others are shown in active engagement with their followers. The use of color and the intricate details in each figure add depth and dimension to the artwork. The retablo is a testament to the importance of religious art in American history and the role it played in shaping the country's cultural identity. Valle's artwork is a significant addition to the Index of American Design, a comprehensive catalog of American decorative arts and design from the Colonial period to the 1940s. Today, "Santos Retablos, 1936" can be found in the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., where it continues to inspire and captivate visitors from around the world. The artwork serves as a reminder of the enduring influence of Catholicism on American art and culture, and the importance of preserving and celebrating our artistic heritage.
