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.

EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "George Du Maurier: A Victorian Mastermind of Words and Images" George Du Maurier (1834-1896) was an extraordinary Victorian figure, renowned for his dual talents as a writer and an artist. This evocative black-and-white photograph captures the enigmatic charm and intellectual brilliance of this versatile man. Born in Paris to a family of artists, Du Maurier was raised in England and educated at King's College London. His literary career began in earnest in the late 1850s, with contributions to various periodicals. However, it was his novel "Trilby" (1894), a gripping tale of art, obsession, and the supernatural, that brought him international acclaim. The novel's eponymous heroine, a young model, became an iconic figure in Victorian literature. Du Maurier's artistic prowess was equally impressive. He began drawing for the renowned satirical weekly magazine Punch in 1860, contributing countless illustrations over the next three decades. His witty and insightful cartoons, often commenting on social issues of the day, became a staple of the publication. This photograph, taken during Du Maurier's later years, reveals a man of deep introspection and quiet confidence. His piercing gaze and thoughtful expression suggest a mind constantly at work, generating ideas and images that would continue to captivate audiences. Du Maurier's legacy as a writer and artist endures, with his works continuing to inspire and delight readers and art lovers alike. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of a remarkable Victorian figure whose contributions to literature and art remain an integral part of our cultural heritage.
