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
Edgar Degas' captivating painting, "The New Orleans Cotton Exchange" (1873), showcases the artist's exceptional skill in capturing the energy and dynamism of human interaction within a commercial setting. This detail from the original oil on canvas work, housed at the Pau Fine Arts Museum in France, transports us to the bustling Cotton Exchange in New Orleans during the late 19th century. Degas masterfully employs the Impressionist style, utilizing vibrant colors and loose brushstrokes to convey the sense of movement and excitement that permeated the exchange floor. The painting depicts a crowd of men, their masculine forms and attire reflecting the Western commercial world of the time. Their intense focus and animated conversations suggest the importance of the cotton trade, a significant economic force during this period. The tree in the foreground serves as a visual anchor, providing a sense of balance and contrast to the chaotic scene unfolding around it. Degas' exploration of contemporary life and the human condition through his art has left an indelible mark on the history of Impressionism. This detail from "The New Orleans Cotton Exchange" is a testament to his ability to capture the essence of a moment in time, inviting us to witness the past and appreciate the richness of human experience.
