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.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing scene titled "Ship Port Ruined Obelisk" by the renowned French artist Pierre Puget. Created between 1675 and 1680, this artwork is executed with pen and black ink, as well as black chalk on vellum, measuring at an impressive size of 25.2 x 35.2 cm (9 15/16 x 13 7/8 in. ). The composition transports us to a bustling port where a majestic ship takes center stage against the backdrop of a ruined obelisk. Puget's meticulous attention to detail brings life to every element within the image; from the intricate rigging of the vessel to the weathered stones that make up the crumbling obelisk. The artist's masterful use of shading and texture adds depth and dimensionality to this maritime scene, evoking a sense of both grandeur and decay. The juxtaposition between the sturdy ship and dilapidated obelisk invites contemplation on themes such as time's passage or mankind's relentless pursuit for progress amidst inevitable decline. Puget's skillful execution captures not only physical structures but also emotions, inviting viewers into his world through this snapshot frozen in time. This remarkable piece serves as a testament to Puget’s artistic prowess and his ability to transport us into imaginary realms where history intertwines with imagination.
