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.

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
Clotilde Cerda, also known by her pseudonym Esmeralda Cervantes, was a renowned Spanish concert harpist of the late 19th century. Born in Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain in 1852, Cerda's musical talent was discovered at a young age. This engraving, published in The Illustration in 1884, showcases Cerda in the prime of her career. Dressed in an elegant Victorian gown adorned with intricate floral patterns, Cerda holds her concert harp with a grace and poise that exudes both confidence and passion. Her expressive face, adorned with a single earring and a delicate curl framing her face, is focused intently on the music, lost in the moment. The engraving, which has been beautifully colored, further highlights Cerda's beauty and the exquisite details of her attire. Her neckline is adorned with a delicate pearl necklace, and her earlobes are adorned with large pearl earrings. Her hands, adorned with rings and intricate jewelry, rest gently on the harp's strings, ready to bring the music to life. Cerda's career took her across Europe, performing for royalty and the elite. Her talent and artistry were celebrated in the musical world, and she was known for her ability to bring a new level of emotion and expression to the harp. This engraving serves as a testament to her enduring legacy and the impact she had on the musical world during her time. As we look at this beautiful image, we are transported back to a time when music was a source of joy, inspiration, and connection. Cerda's story is a reminder of the power of art and the enduring beauty of music.
