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 photograph captures the enigmatic and visionary figure of Jules Verne (1828-1905), the renowned French science fiction writer. The image, titled "Le Nain" or "The Dwarf," showcases Verne in the prime of his life, with a thick white beard framing his weathered face and a bowtie neatly tucked into his high collar. The title "Le Nain" is a playful nickname given to Verne due to his short stature, but his towering imagination and literary contributions far surpassed any physical limitations. Verne is considered a pioneer of science fiction, and his works, such as "Journey to the Center of the Earth," "Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea," and "Around the World in Eighty Days," have captivated readers for generations. His stories, filled with scientific innovation and adventure, have inspired countless films, television shows, and other adaptations. This photograph, taken during Verne's later years, offers a glimpse into the life of a man whose creativity knew no bounds. With a quill pen in hand, Verne continued to write and explore new worlds, pushing the boundaries of science and storytelling. His legacy continues to inspire and captivate readers, making him a true icon of French literature and the world of science fiction. The photograph, from the Mary Evans Picture Library, is a beautiful and intriguing reminder of the man behind the stories that have captured the imaginations of millions. It invites us to delve deeper into the life and works of this extraordinary writer and to appreciate the power of the written word to transport us to new and wondrous places.
