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.

Two Shepherd Boys with Two Dogs Fighting,
EDITORS COMMENTS
a captivating masterpiece by the renowned Georgian artist Thomas Gainsborough, showcases the innocence of childhood and the raw intensity of nature. Painted around 1783, this oil on canvas artwork is a testament to Gainsborough's exceptional skill in capturing the human experience and the bond between man and animal. The painting depicts two young shepherd boys, dressed in simple clothing typical of the era, seated on the grassy bank of a river. Their attentive gaze is fixed on two energetic dogs locked in a fierce struggle over an unseen prize. The boys' expressions mirror the excitement and anticipation of the unfolding scene, their hands poised to intervene if necessary. The idyllic setting of the painting, with its lush greenery and serene river, contrasts sharply with the dynamic and intense moment between the dogs. The skillful use of light and shadow, as well as the vibrant colors, add depth and dimension to the scene, drawing the viewer in and immersing them in the world of the painting. This artwork is a beautiful representation of the Georgian period, a time of great artistic and cultural significance in British history. The painting is now part of the Iveagh Bequest collection at Kenwood House in London, a testament to its historical and artistic importance. The image of the two shepherd boys and their dogs fighting encapsulates the essence of childhood, the beauty of nature, and the enduring bond between man and animal.
