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 stunning print depicts the renowned French artist Joseph Marie Vien (1716-1809), who held the prestigious title of "Premier Peintre du Roi," or First Painter to the King, under Louis XV and Louis XVI. Vien was a leading figure in the French art scene during the late Baroque and Rococo periods, known for his history paintings and portraits. Born in Paris, Vien studied under the tutelage of Jean-Baptiste Benoit-Joseph Marsy and Jean-Baptiste Greuze. He began his career as a history painter, producing works that often depicted scenes from mythology and the Bible. His mastery of light and color, as well as his ability to capture the human form with sensitivity and grace, earned him a reputation as one of the finest painters of his time. In 1755, Vien was appointed as a professor at the prestigious École des Beaux-Arts in Paris, where he taught for over 30 years. He also served as the director of the school from 1770 until his retirement in 1783. Vien's students included some of the most prominent artists of the late 18th century, including Jacques-Louis David and Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres. This print captures Vien in the later years of his life, with a serious expression and dressed in the formal attire of a respected artist and academic. The artist's brush and palette are visible on the table before him, a testament to his lifelong dedication to his craft. The intricately detailed background, with its ornate furnishings and bookshelves filled with volumes on art and history, further emphasizes Vien's status as a leading figure in the French art world.
