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 "The Tennis Court Oath (Le Serment du Jeu de paume), c. 1790" a significant moment in the history of the French Revolution. The image, part of a private collection, captures the essence of this pivotal event that took place in 1789. In this scene, we witness an anonymous group gathered within the tennis court as they take an oath to stand united against the oppressive regime that plagued France at that time. The atmosphere is tense and charged with determination as these individuals make a solemn pledge to bring about change and fight for their rights. The use of copper engraving and watercolor techniques adds depth and richness to this fine art piece, allowing us to immerse ourselves in its historical significance. This image represents not only a turning point in French history but also symbolizes the spirit of revolution and resistance against tyranny. "The Tennis Court Oath" played a crucial role in igniting political transformations during the French Revolution. It led to the formation of key institutions such as the National Assembly, Estates General, Girondins, Jacobins, and ultimately paved the way for events like Robespierre's Reign of Terror. As we gaze upon this remarkable print, we are reminded of how ordinary individuals can come together under extraordinary circumstances to challenge authority and fight for justice. It serves as a powerful reminder of our collective ability to shape history through unity and determination.
