23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 16x12 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 23x19 inches (584x482mm). 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 Sir William Forbes of Pitsligo, a prominent Scottish banker from the late 18th century. The artist, Henry Robinson, skillfully captures Forbes' distinguished presence and his role as a significant figure in both finance and Freemasonry. Forbes, who served as the Grand Master of the Grand Lodge of Scotland from 1776 to 1778, is portrayed with an air of authority and intelligence. His gaze reflects his astute business acumen and deep understanding of commerce. The portrait itself is an engraving taken from Robert Chambers' A Biographical Dictionary of Eminent Scotsmen published in 1870. This piece serves as a testament to Forbes' lasting impact on Scottish society during his lifetime. Sir William Forbes stands as a symbol not only for the banking industry but also for Scotland's rich history and heritage.
