1867 Alphabet Alphabets Applied Luck Gamester
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 image, titled 'G for Gamester: Who, Historical, 1867,' showcases an intriguing character from the past, his countenance etched with a mixture of melancholy and determination. The Gamester, depicted here in this beautifully illustrated alphabet print, was a historical figure who, much like the letter 'G' in this alphabet series, embodied the concept of 'gamester' - an individual known for gambling or playing games of chance. The year 1867, marked in the bottom left corner of the print, serves as a reminder of the time in which this figure lived. Dressed in the fashion of the era, with a crisp waistcoat, high collar, and a top hat perched on his head, the Gamester exudes an air of sophistication and elegance. His eyes, however, reveal a different story - a tale of ill-luck that has left him weary and downcast. The intricate details of the print, from the delicate folds of his clothing to the intricate patterns adorning the wallpaper in the background, are a testament to the skill and artistry of the illustrator. The use of rich colors and bold lines adds depth and dimension to the image, making it a true work of art. This print is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the lives of historical figures and the societal norms of a bygone era. The Gamester, with his story of luck and misfortune, serves as a reminder that, even in the most challenging of circumstances, one can maintain a sense of dignity and grace. This print is not only a beautiful addition to any home or office, but also a thought-provoking conversation starter, inviting us to ponder the stories and histories behind the letters of the alphabet.
