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 evocative photograph captures the enigmatic and visionary French composer Maurice Ravel as he gazes intently into the distance, lost in thought or deep concentration. The image, taken in 1937, finds Ravel in the prime of his artistic career, having already made significant contributions to the world of classical music through his groundbreaking compositions in the genres of impressionism and neoclassicism. Born in Ciboure, France in 1875, Ravel's musical talents were evident from an early age. He studied at the Conservatoire de Paris and later became a member of the influential group of French composers known as Les Apaches. Ravel's unique style, which blended traditional French music with innovative harmonies and rhythms, set him apart from his contemporaries. One of Ravel's most famous works, "Boléro," premiered in 1928 and became an instant sensation. The piece's hypnotic repetition and relentless build-up to a triumphant climax captivated audiences and solidified Ravel's reputation as a master of orchestration. In this photograph, taken by the renowned German-American photographer Erich A. Nauer, Ravel is seen in a simple, understated setting, dressed in a formal suit and tie. The photographer's skillful use of light and shadow creates an intimate and introspective atmosphere, inviting viewers to ponder the depths of Ravel's creative mind. As Ravel continued to compose and conduct throughout the 1930s and 1940s, he remained a trailblazer in the world of classical music. Tragically, he passed away in 1937, leaving behind a rich and enduring legacy that continues to inspire and captivate audiences to this day.
