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.

The Sense of Hearing The Sense of Sound
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating oil painting by Philippe Mercier, a renowned Franco-German artist from the late 17th to mid-18th century. This exquisite piece, signed in the lower right corner as "Ph. Mercier fecit" beautifully captures the essence of sound and its impact on our senses. In this artwork, Mercier skillfully combines various elements to depict the sense of hearing. The scene unfolds amidst an architectural backdrop adorned with columns and arcades, creating a harmonious setting for musical enchantment. Two musicians take center stage - a violinist and a harpsichordist - their instruments poised to create melodies that will resonate through space. The attention to detail is remarkable; every stroke brings life to their costumes, earrings glimmering under soft light, while spectacles rest upon one musician's face. These intricate details add depth and realism to the composition. Mercier's masterpiece not only celebrates music but also invites us to contemplate the profound connection between sound and our perception of it. As we gaze at this print from Liszt Collection, we are reminded of how music has the power to evoke emotions within us like no other art form can. This print serves as a timeless reminder that sound transcends boundaries and speaks directly to our souls. It is an homage not only to Philippe Mercier's artistic prowess but also an invitation for us all to appreciate the beauty found in every note that graces our ears
