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. Overall outside dimensions are 23x19 inches (584x482mm). 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 photograph captures the enigmatic French surrealist artist, Jean Beraud (1849-1935), in an unexpected yet quintessentially artistic moment. The image, taken in 1935, shows Beraud in the prime of his later years, casually dressed in a sweater and trousers, as he gracefully rides a bicycle along a quiet, tree-lined path. With one hand resting on the handlebars and the other cradling a bicycle pump, Beraud exudes a sense of calm focus and contemplation. Beraud was a leading figure in the surrealist movement, known for his dreamlike and fantastical paintings that often explored the boundaries between reality and imagination. However, this photograph offers a glimpse into the more mundane yet profoundly human side of the artist's life. The bicycle, a common mode of transportation in France during this time, serves as a symbol of freedom and the simple pleasures of everyday life. The historical context of this photograph is also noteworthy. The late 1930s were a tumultuous time in European history, with the looming threat of World War II casting a shadow over the continent. Amidst the uncertainty and upheaval, this photograph offers a rare moment of tranquility and introspection, a reminder of the enduring human spirit and the power of art to transport us to another world. Jean Beraud's legacy as a surrealist artist continues to inspire and intrigue art lovers around the world, and this photograph offers a unique perspective on the man behind the masterpieces. With its timeless composition and evocative subject matter, this image is a must-have for any collection of art history or surrealist-themed photographs.
