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
This 16th century print depicts the character "La Fille," or "The Girl," from the play "Vielle" by Marguerite de Valois, Reine de Navarre. Marguerite de Valois (1553-1615), also known as Margot de Valois, was a French princess and patron of the arts. She was a prominent figure during the Renaissance period and was known for her love of the arts, particularly the theatre. In this print, La Fille is depicted holding a tambourine and dressed in the costume of a ballerina or comedienne from the commedia dell'arte tradition. The commedia dell'arte was a popular form of improvisational theatre that originated in Italy during the Renaissance. It featured stock characters and scenarios, and the performers often wore distinctive costumes and masks. The print is a testament to the rich artistic and cultural heritage of the French Renaissance and the role that theatre played in the lives of the aristocracy. Marguerite de Valois was a patron of the arts and a supporter of the commedia dell'arte, and this print may have been created to celebrate her love of the theatre and her patronage. The print also provides a glimpse into the world of the commedia dell'arte and the role of women in the theatre during this period. La Fille, with her tambourine and lively expression, embodies the spirit of the commedia dell'arte and the joy and energy of the performances. Overall, this print is a fascinating window into the world of French theatre during the Renaissance and the role of Marguerite de Valois as a patron and supporter of the arts. It is a reminder of the rich artistic and cultural heritage of this period and the enduring influence of the commedia dell'arte on the history of theatre.
