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
Elisabeth Charlotte, Duchesse d'Orleans, was born on December 21, 1737, in the Palace of Château de Saint-Cloud, France, to Jean-Baptiste, Comte de La Haye-Sainte-Ruine, and Charlotte-Elisabeth de La Trémoille. Raised in the court of Versailles, she was known for her beauty, intelligence, and wit. In 1753, at the age of fifteen, she married Louis Philippe II, Duke of Orléans, the younger brother of King Louis XV. The marriage was politically motivated, as the Duke of Orléans was a powerful figure in French politics and the alliance was intended to strengthen the royal family's position. Elisabeth Charlotte proved to be a devoted and loving wife, bearing her husband ten children over the course of their marriage. She was also known for her patronage of the arts and her charitable works, particularly her support of the Hôpital des Enfants-Trouvés, a home for abandoned children. In 1789, during the French Revolution, the Duke of Orléans was forced to flee France and went into exile in England. Elisabeth Charlotte remained in France with her children, and was able to protect their property and assets during the tumultuous period. She died on December 10, 1806, at the age of sixty-eight, and was buried in the Royal Basilica of Saint-Denis. This stunning portrait of Elisabeth Charlotte, Duchesse d'Orléans, captures her grace and elegance. The painting, which dates from the late 18th century, is a testament to the beauty and refinement of the French aristocracy during this period. The Duchesse's delicate features, expressive eyes, and elegant attire are all on full display, making this a truly captivating image of a remarkable woman.
