Casual Cigar Door Way Lawrence Painter Relaxed Relaxing Straw
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.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures Sir Lawrence Alma-Tadema, the renowned British painter, in a moment of leisurely repose. Dating back to the late 19th century, the image finds the artist relaxing in a casual setting, seated in a wicker chair with a cigar in hand. The warm, sunlit room is adorned with rich textures and colors, from the intricately patterned rugs and tapestries to the vibrant flowers in a nearby vase. Alma-Tadema, known for his meticulously detailed and historically accurate paintings, is often depicted in popular culture as a serious and dedicated artist. However, this photograph offers a more personal glimpse into his life off the canvas. The artist's relaxed expression and the inviting atmosphere of the room suggest a man who, despite his professional accomplishments, knew how to unwind and enjoy the simple pleasures of life. The door frame in the background, with its intricate carvings and aged wood, adds a sense of history and depth to the scene. The artist's studio, filled with books, brushes, and other art supplies, is visible through the doorway, hinting at the creative energy that fueled his prolific career. Overall, this photograph provides a fascinating window into the life of one of Britain's most celebrated painters, offering a glimpse of the man behind the masterpieces. Sir Lawrence Alma-Tadema (1836-1912) was a British painter known for his meticulously detailed and historically accurate works, which often depicted scenes from ancient Rome and Greece. His paintings were highly sought after by collectors and art lovers, and he was knighted by Queen Victoria in 1899 for his services to art. This photograph, taken in the late 19th century, offers a rare and intimate look at the artist in a more casual setting, allowing us to appreciate his humanity and creativity beyond the canvas.
