23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 16x12 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.

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
Embarkation for Cythera," painted by the renowned French artist Jean-Antoine Watteau in 1717, is a captivating masterpiece housed at the Louvre Museum in Paris. This exquisite work of art is a prime example of the Baroque and Rococo styles that dominated the European art scene during the early 18th century. The painting depicts a group of elegantly dressed men and women preparing to embark on a journey to the mythological island of Cythera, known as the island of Venus. The goddess of love is said to have resided there, making it a popular destination for those seeking romance and pleasure. The figures in the painting are depicted with an air of anticipation and excitement, as they bid farewell to their loved ones and set sail on their voyage. Watteau's use of color and light in this painting is truly breathtaking. The soft pastels and muted tones create a dreamlike atmosphere, transporting the viewer to another world. The artist's skillful brushstrokes bring the figures to life, capturing the subtle expressions and emotions on their faces. The Embarkation for Cythera is a testament to Watteau's mastery of the art of painting during the modern age. It is a work of art that continues to inspire and captivate audiences, offering a glimpse into the world of the past and the enduring power of art to transport us to new and imaginative places. This painting is not only a historical artifact but also a work of art that transcends time and continues to be relevant and beloved by generations. It is a must-see for anyone visiting the Louvre Museum in Paris and a reminder of the rich artistic heritage of France.
