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.

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
In this exquisite hand-colored lithograph, Gabrielle d'Estrees, a renowned beauty and the mistress of King Henry IV of France, is depicted in an elegant and refined pose. The portrait, directed by Breton and Borromee after an original painting in the Hôtel d'Estrees, showcases Gabrielle's captivating allure and sophistication. Gabrielle d'Estrees, born in 1540, rose to prominence in the French court during the reign of King Henry II. She later became the mistress of Henry IV, who ascended to the throne in 1589. Their relationship began in 1599 and continued until Gabrielle's untimely death in 1607. As the Duchess of Beaufort and Verneuil, Marchioness of Monceaux, Gabrielle held significant influence at the French court. Her beauty and charm were legendary, and she was often the subject of art and literature. This lithograph, produced by the French publishing house Le Bibliophile Jacob, captures her essence in stunning detail. Gabrielle is dressed in the height of fashionable attire for the late 16th century. Her elaborate gown is adorned with intricate gold lace and embroidery, while her hair is styled in an elaborate updo, held in place by a diamond and pearl headpiece. Her expressive eyes and delicate features exude an air of sensuality and allure, making this portrait a true masterpiece of historical art. The lithograph, created in 1852, is a testament to the enduring legacy of Gabrielle d'Estrees and her relationship with King Henry IV. It remains a captivating and intriguing glimpse into the world of the French court during the late Renaissance period.
