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.

Cain, with his bone raised high in his hand, is about to strike Abel, who he has firmly grasped by the hair and forcefully pushed to the ground. Part of a seven-part series illustrating scenes from the book of Genesis, this print showcases Gerard de Lairesse's masterful artistry. Created in 1665 using paper and etching techniques, it measures 222 mm in height and 250 mm in width. The artist presents various interpretations of how Cain slays his brother Abel throughout this series. Whether employing a stone, club, jaw-bone or even a spade as weapons, each depiction captures the brutal nature of this tragic event.
