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 intriguing photograph, titled "Spirit Photo Deane: Mrs. Mackenzie Sits, Unaware that the Spirit of John Ruskin is Floating Over Her Right Shoulder," is a captivating example of spiritualist photography from the 1920s. The image, available through Mary Evans Prints Online, depicts a woman identified as Mrs. Mackenzie, who is seated in a chair with her eyes closed, seemingly in a state of deep meditation or trance. The room is dimly lit, adding to the mysterious and otherworldly atmosphere. What sets this photograph apart, however, is the ethereal figure that appears to be floating just over Mrs. Mackenzie's right shoulder. The figure is identified as the spirit of John Ruskin, a renowned Victorian art critic and social commentator. According to spiritualist beliefs, Ruskin's spirit was able to manifest itself in the photographic image, providing a visual confirmation of life after death. The photograph was likely taken during a séance or spiritualist gathering, where individuals would come together to communicate with the deceased. Spiritualist photography, which gained popularity in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, was believed to offer a tangible proof of the existence of spirits and the afterlife. Despite the widespread skepticism and criticism of spiritualist photography, this image continues to intrigue and captivate viewers with its haunting beauty and the sense of mystery it conveys. The photograph invites us to ponder the boundaries of the known world and the possibilities of the unknown, and to consider the enduring human desire to connect with the spirits of those who have passed on.
