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.

EDITORS COMMENTS
Joost de Pape's exquisite oil painting, "Venus and Adonis" (1629), captures the poignant moment from Greek mythology where the goddess of love, Venus, embraces her beloved Adonis, moments before his untimely death. The young man, clad in hunting attire, is shown with his bare feet on the ground, a hunting dog at his side, as he tenderly embraces Venus, who is adorned in flowing red robes, her voluptuous body adorned with intricate gold jewelry and delicate white fabric. The painting, a masterpiece of Dutch art from the 17th century, is rich in symbolism and emotion. The tree trunk in the background represents the cycle of life and death, as well as the idea of the fleeting nature of beauty and youth. The vibrant colors and intricate details of the clothing and bodies, as well as the natural setting, transport us to another time and place, inviting us to ponder the tragic love story of Venus and Adonis. This painting, now a cherished part of the Rijksmuseum's European heritage, continues to captivate and inspire viewers with its timeless beauty and emotional depth.
