Aquatint Ascribed Francisco Goya Praying Aisa Kneeled
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 evocative aquatint drawing, titled "Kneeled Nun Praying," is a poignant and deeply moving work of art that has captivated viewers for centuries. Originally attributed to the renowned Spanish artist Francisco de Goya, this masterpiece now resides in the Asian Art Museum in San Francisco, California. The image depicts a solitary nun, dressed in the traditional habit of her order, kneeling in deep devotion before an altar. Her face is a study in intense concentration and quiet reverence, her eyes closed in fervent prayer. The intricately detailed rendering of her wrinkled, aged hands as they clasp in supplication adds to the sense of reverence and humility. The muted, atmospheric tones of the aquatint process perfectly capture the solemn and contemplative mood of the scene. The play of light and shadow, as well as the delicate textures and patterns, add depth and dimension to the image, drawing the viewer in and inviting them to share in the nun's moment of spiritual communion. Despite the uncertainty surrounding the true authorship of this drawing, there is no denying the powerful impact it has had on art history. The image of the kneeling nun has become an iconic symbol of faith, devotion, and the human capacity for introspection and spiritual connection. This historic work of art continues to inspire and move viewers, reminding us of the enduring power of art to transport us to another time and place, and to touch our hearts and souls.
