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: "Henry William Bunbury (1750-1811): A Distinguished British Portrait Painter of the Late 18th Century" Henry William Bunbury (1750-1811), an eminent British portrait painter of the late 18th century, is depicted in this self-portrait. Born in London on February 23, 1750, Bunbury was the eldest son of the painter William Bunbury. He began his artistic training under the tutelage of his father and later studied under the renowned artist Joshua Reynolds at the Royal Academy. Bunbury's career as a portrait painter flourished in the late 1770s and 1780s, a period marked by the height of the Georgian era in Britain. His works are characterized by their meticulous attention to detail, naturalistic rendering of flesh tones, and the subtle use of light and shadow. Bunbury's portraits often conveyed a sense of warmth and vitality, making him a favorite among his patrons. In this self-portrait, Bunbury presents himself in the traditional three-quarter length pose, wearing the formal attire of the day. His gaze is direct and confident, reflecting his self-assuredness as an artist. The background is simple, with a plain, dark curtain providing a subtle contrast to Bunbury's richly textured clothing. The artist's brush is visible in the lower left corner, a reminder of the creative process that brought this image to life. Bunbury's career was not without its challenges. In 1793, he was involved in a bitter dispute with the Royal Academy over the election of a new member. Despite this setback, Bunbury continued to produce a steady stream of portraits, earning the admiration of his contemporaries and leaving a lasting legacy in British art. Henry William Bunbury passed away on March 1, 1811, leaving behind a body of work that continues to captivate art lovers today. This self-portrait is a testament to his skill and dedication as a portrait painter, offering a glimpse into the life of a talented artist from a bygone era.
