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.

Four Seasons in One Head, c. 1590 - A Bizarre Masterpiece by Giuseppe Arcimboldi
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this artwork by Italian Renaissance artist Giuseppe Arcimboldi, titled "Four Seasons in One Head" the viewer is transported into a world where nature and human form intertwine. Created during the 16th century, this oil painting showcases Arcimboldi's extraordinary talent for anthropomorphism. The face depicted here is composed entirely of elements from each season. Delicate flowers bloom as eyes, while branches and leaves sprout as hair and adornments. The vibrant colors of cherries and grapes bring life to the lips, contrasting with the plums that form an intricate earring. Arcimboldi's attention to detail is evident in every stroke of his brush; wheat stalks create a textured beard, while apples and ivy entwine to shape a unique nose. The tree trunk emerging from the head symbolizes strength and rootedness amidst changing seasons. This masterpiece invites contemplation on the cyclical nature of time and our connection to the natural world. It challenges conventional notions of portraiture by merging human features with elements from Mother Nature herself. Displayed at the National Gallery of Art in Washington D. C. , "Four Seasons in One Head" continues to captivate audiences with its strange beauty and unconventional composition. As we gaze upon this enigmatic artwork, we are reminded that art has no boundaries when it comes to imagination and creativity - truly a testament
