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
Lord Byron Contemplating the Colosseum in Rome: A Moment of Reflection and Inspiration This evocative photograph captures the renowned English poet, Lord Byron (1788-1824), deep in thought as he gazes upon the ancient ruins of the Colosseum in Rome. Dressed in the fashion of the early 19th century, Lord Byron appears pensive and introspective, his gaze fixed on the grand amphitheater that has stood as a symbol of Rome's rich history and imperial power for over 2,000 years. The Colosseum, a testament to the Roman Empire's architectural prowess, looms large in the background, its weathered stones bearing the marks of time. The ruins of this once magnificent structure have long been a source of fascination for travelers and artists alike, and Lord Byron's visit to this iconic site is a poignant reminder of the enduring allure of the classical world. As a leading figure of the Romantic movement in literature, Lord Byron's poetry was characterized by a deep appreciation for the beauty and power of nature, as well as a fascination with the past. The ruins of the Colosseum would have provided ample inspiration for his creative muse, and this photograph offers a glimpse into the mind of one of the greatest literary figures of the Romantic era. The photograph, taken circa 1850, captures the essence of a bygone era, when the grand tour of Europe was a rite of passage for the wealthy and educated. The image invites us to contemplate the passage of time, the enduring power of art and literature, and the allure of the past. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported back in time, to a moment of reflection and inspiration, as Lord Byron contemplates the ruins of the Colosseum in Rome.
