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 renowned painting "Hagar and Ishmael in the desert" by Luca Giordano, a prominent Italian artist from the 17th century. The artwork is currently housed at Apsley House in London and originates from the Spanish Royal Collection. Its acquisition by Wellington during his triumph at Vitoria in 1813 adds an intriguing historical context to this masterpiece. Giordano's skillful brushstrokes bring to life the biblical tale of Hagar and Ishmael, exuding a sense of drama and emotion. The composition depicts Hagar, Abraham's concubine, with her son Ishmael wandering through a barren desert landscape. Their weary expressions reflect their desperate plight as they face exile and uncertainty. The painting beautifully captures the bond between mother and child amidst adversity, evoking empathy within viewers' hearts. Giordano's mastery of light and shadow creates a striking contrast that enhances both figures' vulnerability against nature's harsh elements. This print not only preserves Giordano's artistic brilliance but also serves as a testament to history itself. It stands as a reminder of how art can transcend time, allowing us to connect with stories passed down through generations while appreciating the talent that brought them to life.
