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.

Frederic Chopin's Last Moments: A Poignant Scene of Respect and Devotion This evocative image captures the final moments of the legendary Polish musician, Frederic Chopin, as he lies on his deathbed in Paris, France, in 1849. Diagnosed with tuberculosis, or consumption as it was then known, Chopin's health had been declining for several years. The photograph, taken from a historical print by Mary Evans Picture Library, depicts a somber and respectful scene as the musician, surrounded by a small group of mourners, takes his last breaths. At the head of Chopin's bed, a nun, likely a member of the Sisters of Providence, holds a crucifix and offers a prayer for the dying musician's soul. The solemn expression on her face reflects the gravity of the moment, as she pays tribute to the man who had dedicated his life to music and art. To Chopin's left, a man, possibly a friend or family member, bows his head in respect and mourning. His hand rests on the piano, a symbol of Chopin's life's work and the source of his fame and fortune. The piano, with its keys covered in a cloth, is a poignant reminder of the music that had once flowed so freely from Chopin's fingers. The image is a powerful testament to the deep respect and admiration that Chopin's music and art had elicited from those around him, even in his final moments. The scene is a poignant reminder of the human connection to art and the power of music to touch the soul, even in the face of death. This historical print, taken from the Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a glimpse into the past and allows us to bear witness to a moment of profound respect and devotion. The image invites us to reflect on the legacy of Frederic Chopin and the enduring power of his music, which continues to inspire and captivate audiences around the world.
