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.

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 stunning handcolored engraving depicts the Duchess of Cleveland, a prominent figure in English history, as depicted in Sir Peter Lely's painting. The image is taken from the "Civil Costume of England from the Conquest to the Present Period," a comprehensive work drawn by Charles Martin and etched by Leopold Martin. The Martins were renowned artists and engravers in their own right, following in the footsteps of their father, the romantic artist and mezzotint engraver John Martin. The Duchess of Cleveland's portrait, originally painted in 1659, is a prime example of the opulence and grandeur of the English Restoration period. The handcolored engraving brings the Duchess's regal beauty and elegant attire to life, capturing the intricate details of her richly embroidered gown, lace collars, and elaborate headdress. The "Civil Costume of England" was a meticulously researched project, with the Martins drawing inspiration from a variety of sources including tapestries, monumental effigies, illuminated manuscripts, and portraits. The result is a visually stunning and historically accurate record of English costume history from the Conquest to the present day. This engraving offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time of opulence, elegance, and grandeur. The Duchess of Cleveland stands as a symbol of the power and beauty of the English aristocracy during the Restoration period, and this exquisite handcolored engraving serves as a testament to the skill and artistry of the Martins and their father.
