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
Mrs. Hartley, with her Child as a Youthful Bacchus: An Enchanting 18th Century Fantasy by Sir Joshua Reynolds and Octave Lacour This engraving, titled "Mrs. Hartley, with her Child as a Youthful Bacchus," is a mesmerizing collaboration between renowned artist Sir Joshua Reynolds (1723-1792) and the skilled engraver Octave Lacour (1855-1921), created in 1884. The artwork is a beautiful rendition of a scene that plays with the boundaries of reality and fantasy. In the image, we see Mrs. Hartley, elegantly dressed, cradling a young boy who appears to be the embodiment of the Roman god Bacchus. The god of wine, fertility, and revelry is often depicted as a young, mischievous deity, surrounded by grapes, ivy, and other symbols of his domain. Here, he is transformed into a cherubic child, adding a touch of whimsy and delight. The setting of the scene is rich with detail, with intricate patterns on the walls and floor, lush foliage, and a grand fireplace. The play of light and shadow adds depth and dimension to the image, making it a visual feast for the eyes. This engraving is a testament to the artistic mastery of both Reynolds and Lacour. Reynolds' skillful use of color and composition is beautifully translated into the black-and-white medium by Lacour, who expertly captures the intricacies of the original painting. The result is a stunning work of art that continues to captivate viewers with its charm and enchantment.
