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
Mongrel Puppy Tempted by His Master's Shoes" is an enchanting illustration from the early 1910s, capturing the playful curiosity of a young mongrel puppy. The black-and-white image, dated 1914, depicts the pup gazing intently at a pair of shoes lying on the floor in a dressing room. With a look of unbridled fascination, the puppy reaches out a paw, as if considering the shoes his own. The scene is set in a cozy, cluttered room, with books and other odds and ends scattered about. The room's owner, presumably the puppy's master, is not present. Instead, the focus is squarely on the pup and the tantalizing shoes. The illustration is reminiscent of the works of renowned animal illustrators of the time, such as Walter T. Foster, Cecil Aldin, and Emanual Cooper. The mongrel breed, with its mixed heritage and unpredictable appearance, was a popular subject for illustrators during this era. The breed's unique characteristics and boundless energy made for endearing and entertaining depictions. In this illustration, the mongrel's breed is not the focus, but rather its innate curiosity and playful nature. The image transports us back to a simpler time, when the daily routines of life were not so complex, and the simple joys of a wagging tail and a playful pup were enough to brighten the day. The illustration is a testament to the enduring bond between humans and their canine companions, and the timeless curiosity that drives both species. This image is a treasure from the past, offering a glimpse into the history of dogs and their place in our lives. It is a reminder that, no matter how much time passes, the love and companionship of a dog remain constant and true.
