23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 16x12 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 23x19 inches (584x482mm). 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 chromolithograph, entitled "Fashions of French and English Men," showcases the distinctive attire of the late 16th century, as depicted in Dr. Jakob Heinrich von Hefner-Alteneck's seminal work, "Costumes, Artworks and Appliances from the Middle Ages to the 17th Century." In this intriguing image, we find two figures representing the fashion trends of France and England during this period. The French gentleman, dressed in the top left corner, dons a wide-brimmed hat adorned with a feather and a voluminous cape, which falls gracefully over his shoulders. The cape, often referred to as a "capotain," was a popular outerwear choice for the French aristocracy during this time. The man's attire is completed with a ruff, a high, starched collar that was a hallmark of fashionable dress in the late 16th century. In stark contrast, the English gentleman, depicted in the bottom right corner, wears a short doublet, fitted hose, and carries a sword and a round targe or shield. The doublet, a form-fitting jacket, was a common choice for men's formal wear during this era. The hose, which covered the legs from the waist to the ankles, were often worn with garters to hold them up. The English gentleman's attire is completed with a round targe or shield, a defensive weapon that was popular among the English military during this period. This image, created by Dr. Hefner-Alteneck and lithographed by C. Regnier in 1889, offers a fascinating glimpse into the rich and varied fashion trends of the late 16th century, providing us with a window into the past and a reminder of the intricate and ornate clothing that defined this era.
