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 black and white portrait captures the enigmatic and intellectual essence of Dame Iris Murdoch (1919-1999), a British novelist, philosopher, and author, in the height of her creative prime during the 1960s. The photograph, taken in 1967, was taken by the renowned British photographer Madame Yevonde. Iris Murdoch's piercing gaze and introspective expression convey the depth and complexity of her thought-provoking works, which explored themes of good and evil, sexual relationships, morality, power, and the unconscious. Born in Dublin, Ireland, and raised in England, Murdoch studied philosophy at Oxford University before embarking on a successful career as a writer. Her novels, which often featured intricate plots and multiple narratives, were praised for their philosophical depth and psychological insight. Her works, such as "The Sea, The Sea," "The Bell," and "The Nice and the Good," continue to be celebrated for their exploration of the human condition and the complexities of the human psyche. Murdoch's philosophical interests were deeply intertwined with her literary pursuits, and she was known for her unique approach to integrating philosophical concepts into her novels. Her work was also marked by its exploration of the role of sexual relationships in human life, and the moral complexities that arise from them. With her profound insights and thought-provoking narratives, Iris Murdoch left an indelible mark on British literature and philosophy, and continues to be celebrated as one of the most important and influential writers of the 20th century.
