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
is a captivating print that showcases the artistic brilliance of Emile Jean-Horace Vernet. This 19th-century masterpiece, housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, captures the essence of sorrow and loss with remarkable precision. In this black and white lithograph, we witness a young woman dressed in mourning attire, seated at her dressing table in a boudoir. The intricate details of her clothing and accessories reflect the fashion trends of the era while emphasizing her solitude and sadness. Surrounding her are angelic cherubs or putti, symbolizing both love and loss. Vernet's lithography technique adds depth to this poignant portrait, highlighting every emotion etched on the widow's face. Her expression speaks volumes about the pain she carries within after experiencing such profound grief. The composition exudes an air of melancholy as it transports us back to a time when societal expectations dictated how widows should mourn their lost loved ones. Through his artistry, Vernet invites us to contemplate not only personal tragedy but also broader themes surrounding marriage and femininity during this period. As we gaze upon "The Young Widow" we cannot help but be moved by its timeless beauty and emotional resonance. It serves as a powerful reminder that art has the ability to capture human experiences across centuries, allowing us to connect with our shared humanity even today.
