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.

William Gillette: The Masterful Interpreter of Sherlock Holmes This photograph captures American actor and dramatist, William Gillette, in the iconic role of the world's greatest detective, Sherlock Holmes. Gillette, born in 1855, was an influential figure in late 19th and early 20th century entertainment. His innovative adaptations of literary classics and his unforgettable portrayal of Sherlock Holmes left an indelible mark on both the stage and screen. In this image, Gillette is seen in the quiet intimacy of his dressing room. The actor, dressed in a plush dressing gown, gazes intently into the mirror, adjusting the famous deerstalker hat and twirling his signature pipe between his fingers. The pipe, a prop that became synonymous with his portrayal of the detective, rests on a small table adorned with a vase of flowers and a mirror reflecting the vanity table. Gillette's transformation into Sherlock Holmes was not only physical but also psychological. He meticulously studied the character, delving deep into the complexities of Conan Doyle's creation. His portrayal of the detective was not only a faithful adaptation but also a nuanced interpretation, bringing depth and humanity to the character. This photograph is a testament to Gillette's dedication and artistry. It captures the essence of a performer in the midst of his craft, embodying the enigmatic and brilliant character of Sherlock Holmes. Gillette's legacy as an actor and dramatist continues to inspire and influence artists to this day.
