1775 1860s Chair Back Holding Leaning Top Hat Alexander Anderson
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
In this print from the Liszt Collection, we are transported back to the 1860s and introduced to a distinguished full-bearded man. Standing tall with an air of confidence, he holds a top hat in his hand while leaning against the back of a chair. The photograph, captured by Alexander Anderson, an American artist known for his exceptional skills in portraiture during that era, showcases his mastery in capturing both the subject's physical features and their inner essence. The man's full beard exudes masculinity and wisdom, adding depth to his character. His piercing gaze suggests intelligence and perhaps even a hint of mystery. The way he casually leans on the chair back demonstrates a relaxed yet poised demeanor. This albumen silver print is not just an ordinary portrait; it is a testament to Anderson's ability to freeze moments in time and reveal glimpses into people's lives. As we observe this image today, over 150 years later, we can't help but wonder about the stories behind this enigmatic figure. Whether he was an influential figure of society or simply someone who left an indelible mark on those around him remains unknown. Nevertheless, through this remarkable photograph, we are invited into his world for just a moment – captivated by his presence and forever intrigued by what lies beneath that impressive beard and within that top hat held so delicately in his grasp.
