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 Gissing: A Victorian Novelist with a Distinctive Moustache" George Robert Gissing (1857-1903) was a prolific and influential English novelist of the Victorian era, renowned for his keen social observation and realistic portrayal of working-class life. This photograph captures the author in the prime of his career, exuding an air of intellectual intensity and quiet determination. Born on February 20, 1857, in Wakefield, England, Gissing began writing at an early age, publishing his first novel, "Workers in the Dawn," in 1880. Over the next two decades, he produced a remarkable body of work, including "The Nether World," "New Grub Street," and "The Odd Women," which continue to be celebrated for their insightful commentary on the social and economic conditions of the time. In this photograph, taken in 1903, Gissing is seen in the height of his literary fame, with a distinctive moustache that has become synonymous with his image. The historical context of the image places him within the broader literary landscape of the Victorian era, a time of great social and cultural change. Gissing's novels offer a unique perspective on the lives of the working class, exploring themes of poverty, ambition, and love in the context of the rapidly industrializing world. His work continues to resonate with readers today, providing a valuable window into the past and shedding light on the complexities of human experience. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the life and legacy of a remarkable writer, whose contributions to English literature remain a source of inspiration and fascination. With his piercing gaze and expressive moustache, Gissing invites us to delve deeper into the pages of his novels and to appreciate the richness and complexity of the Victorian era.
