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
In this evocative portrait from the annals of French history, Charles, Duc de Bourbon, Connetable de France, and his wife Suzanne are depicted in a moment of tender intimacy. The year is estimated to be between 1490 and 1527, making this an intriguing glimpse into the personal lives of two influential figures during the Renaissance period. Charles, Duc de Bourbon, was a prominent nobleman and military leader, serving as the Constable of France under King Louis XII and later King Francis I. He was a key player in the political landscape of the time, and his military prowess was renowned throughout Europe. His wife, Suzanne, was the daughter of Pierre II de Beaujeu, Duke of Bourbon, and Jeanne de Laval. Their marriage was a strategic alliance, designed to strengthen the Bourbon family's position in the French court. Despite the political machinations that surrounded their union, the portrait reveals a more intimate side of the couple. Charles gazes tenderly at his wife, his hand gently resting on her shoulder. Suzanne returns his gaze, her expression one of love and devotion. The artist's skillful use of light and shadow creates an atmospheric backdrop, with the couple standing before a window that frames their figures and casts a warm, golden light upon them. The intricately detailed clothing and accessories worn by both Charles and Suzanne are a testament to the opulence of the French court during this period. The rich fabrics, intricate embroidery, and ornate jewelry serve as a visual reminder of the wealth and power that surrounded the couple. This portrait offers a rare glimpse into the personal lives of two historical figures, providing a glimpse into the world of the French aristocracy during the Renaissance period. It is a poignant reminder of the complex interplay between power, politics, and personal relationships that defined this era.
