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 W.B. Yeats, the renowned Irish poet, in his youthful and inspiring prime. Painted by the English artist Henry Marriot Paget in 1889, this portrait beautifully captures the essence of Yeats' artistic spirit and intellectual depth. The painting, which measures approximately 18 x 14 inches, is a testament to Paget's exceptional skill as a portrait artist. Born in Dublin, Ireland, in 1865, W.B. Yeats was a central figure in the Irish literary renaissance of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. He was a prolific writer, producing poetry, plays, and literary criticism that explored Irish mythology, folklore, and history. His works often delved into themes of love, politics, and the supernatural, and he was known for his use of symbolism and rich, evocative language. In this painting, Yeats is depicted wearing a collared shirt and a waistcoat, with a serious yet thoughtful expression on his face. His piercing gaze and well-groomed appearance convey a sense of intellectual intensity and artistic sensitivity. The muted colors and soft brushstrokes of the painting add to the overall sense of intimacy and introspection. Paget's portrait of W.B. Yeats is a valuable historical and artistic document, offering a glimpse into the life of one of Ireland's most celebrated literary figures during a pivotal moment in his career. The painting serves as a reminder of the enduring power of the written word and the role of art in capturing the essence of the human spirit.
