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.

A Splendid Advocate, 1883 - Charles Russell QC MP - A Man of Law and Politics
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures the essence of Charles Russell QC MP, a remarkable British lawyer and politician who left an indelible mark on the legal and political landscape of his time. Born in Newry, County Down in 1832, Russell's illustrious career saw him rise to become one of the most influential figures in British law. Dressed impeccably in silks and donning a wig that symbolizes his profession, Russell exudes confidence and authority. His piercing gaze reflects his deep commitment to justice as he navigated through courtrooms with finesse. Not only was he a formidable barrister known for his persuasive skills, but he also ventured into politics. Representing both Dundalk (1880-1885) and Hackney South (1885-1894) as a Liberal Member of Parliament, Russell brought his legal expertise to bear on legislative matters. His contributions were recognized when he was appointed Attorney General not once but twice; first in 1886 and again from 1892-1894. Later on, Lord Chief Justice of England and Wales became another prestigious title held by this exceptional statesman from 1894 until his passing in 1900. Verheyden's chromolithograph beautifully captures the charisma that made Charles Russell such an influential figure during the late nineteenth century. This portrait serves as a testament to his dedication to justice, unwavering pursuit of truth within the courtroom walls, and tireless efforts towards shaping Britain's legal system for generations to come.
