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 oil painting depicts James Alexander Henderson (1823-1883), an esteemed Irish scholar and academic, as captured by the skilled brushstrokes of renowned English artist Harry Douglas (1862-1934). Henderson's intellectual prowess and profound impact on Irish studies are beautifully encapsulated in this evocative portrait. The painting, executed on cardboard, showcases Douglas' mastery of the medium, with the intricacies of Henderson's features rendered in remarkable detail. The artist's use of rich, earthy tones adds depth and texture to the image, while the subtle play of light and shadow creates a sense of depth and dimension. James Alexander Henderson was a prominent figure in the academic world of his time, known for his extensive research and writings on Irish history and folklore. His groundbreaking work helped to shed new light on the cultural heritage of Ireland and contributed significantly to the field of Irish studies. Harry Douglas, a prolific painter, was known for his portraits of notable figures from the worlds of literature, science, and politics. In this painting, he has captured the essence of Henderson's intellect and character, immortalizing him in a work of art that continues to captivate and inspire. This exquisite oil painting is a testament to the enduring power of art to preserve the legacy of great minds and to transport us to another time and place. It serves as a reminder of the important role that scholars like Henderson played in shaping our understanding of the past and the world around us.
