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
This front cover design for the 1967 edition of Black Beauty by Anna Sewell, originally published in 1877, showcases the timeless beauty and grace of horses, while also highlighting the cruelty and injustice they have endured throughout history. The cover, designed by the talented Roger Hall, features a majestic black horse with a white blaze on its face, gazing directly into the viewer's eyes. The intricate details of the horse's coat and the delicate shading of its mane and tail are brought to life through Hall's skillful use of color and texture. The historical significance of this design lies in its connection to Black Beauty, a novel that has touched the hearts of generations of readers with its powerful message about the humane treatment of animals. First published in 1877, the novel was a groundbreaking work that shed light on the cruelty and suffering inflicted upon horses and other animals during the Victorian era. The cover design by Roger Hall beautifully captures the essence of Black Beauty and the themes of the novel. The horse's expressive eyes convey a sense of intelligence and emotion, while the contrast between the black and white elements of the design emphasizes the duality of beauty and cruelty. The intricate border surrounding the image adds a sense of elegance and sophistication, making this a truly stunning piece of book design. This cover design is a testament to the enduring appeal of Black Beauty and the importance of the message it carries. It is a reminder of the rich history of animal literature and the role it has played in shaping our understanding of the humane treatment of animals. Whether you are a horse lover, a book collector, or simply someone who appreciates beautiful design, this print is a must-have addition to your collection.
