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 portrait captures the enigmatic and charismatic figure of George Gordon Byron, 6th Baron Byron (1788-1824), one of the most celebrated poets in English literature. Known for his poetic genius, rebellious spirit, and scandalous personal life, Byron's influence on literature and culture continues to resonate to this day. The image, taken from Mary Evans Prints Online, showcases Byron in his prime, with short, curly hair framing his angular face, and a crisp white collar accentuating the contrast between his dark attire and fair complexion. Byron's piercing gaze and intense expression convey a sense of depth and complexity that belies the superficial image of a roguish poet. Born into the aristocracy, Byron's privileged upbringing provided him with the means to travel extensively throughout Europe, fueling his insatiable curiosity and desire for adventure. His poetry, which explored themes of love, politics, and the human condition, challenged societal norms and established him as a leading figure of the Romantic movement. Despite his literary accomplishments, Byron's personal life was marked by scandal and controversy. He was known for his numerous love affairs, including a famed liaison with Lady Caroline Lamb, and his involvement in political upheaval, such as his support for Greek independence during the Greek War of Independence. This portrait serves as a poignant reminder of Byron's enduring legacy as a literary icon and a symbol of the Romantic era. With his piercing gaze and enigmatic presence, Byron continues to captivate and inspire generations of readers and writers alike.
