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 image captures the young and passionate Polish musician, Frederic Chopin, in an intimate moment during his formative years. Born in 1810 in Zelazowa Wola, a small village in the Duchy of Warsaw, Chopin's prodigious talent for music was evident from an early age. By the time this photograph was taken, likely in the late 1830s or early 1840s, Chopin had already gained international acclaim for his virtuosic piano compositions. The photograph, which is believed to be a Wills Cig Card, showcases Chopin in a casual setting, holding a cigarette in one hand and a sheet of music in the other. The image offers a glimpse into the private world of the renowned composer, revealing a man who was not only a musical genius but also a complex and intriguing individual. Chopin's connection to Poland was deeply rooted, and he remained passionate about his homeland throughout his life. Despite spending much of his adult life in France, he continued to draw inspiration from Polish folk music and culture. This image serves as a poignant reminder of Chopin's Polish heritage and his enduring influence on the world of classical music. As Chopin's career continued to flourish in the late 1840s, he composed some of his most famous works, including the Preludes, Nocturnes, and Ballades. Tragically, his health began to decline, and he passed away in Paris on October 17, 1849, at the age of 39. Today, Chopin is remembered as one of the greatest composers in history, and his music continues to captivate audiences around the world.
