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
This print captures a pivotal moment in British social history, as depicted by the iconic artist William Hogarth in his series "The Rake's Progress." Plate 4 shows the reckless protagonist being arrested for debt in Whitehall, on his way to court. The scene is bustling with activity - from the stern bailiffs leading him away, to the curious onlookers and even a mischievous dog at his feet.
Hogarth's keen eye for detail and satirical wit are evident in every aspect of this image. The intricate street scene, complete with a lamplighter illuminating the darkening sky, transports us back to 18th century Britain. The man's disheveled appearance and defeated expression speak volumes about the consequences of his gambling habits and extravagant lifestyle.
As we study this historical snapshot, we can't help but be drawn into the drama unfolding before our eyes. It serves as a stark reminder of the harsh realities faced by those who lived beyond their means during this period. Through Hogarth's masterful storytelling, we are given a glimpse into a world where social status could crumble in an instant.
This print is not just a piece of art; it is a window into another time, inviting us to reflect on our own attitudes towards wealth, responsibility, and consequence.
