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
August, 1914: A Moment of Tranquility Before the Storm This painting, titled 'August, 1914,' depicts a young woman in a pristine white dress and matching parasol, standing on the tranquil bank of a river teeming with swans. The idyllic scene is further enhanced by the presence of a fine country manor, its grandeur evident in the distant background. The soft, pastel colors of the woman's attire and the serene water reflect the carefree spirit of the summer month. As we gaze upon this image, it is hard to believe that just a few short months later, the world would be plunged into the chaos and devastation of the First World War. This moment, captured in time, represents a fleeting instance of peace and beauty before the storm. The painting, created in 1914, was first published in October, 1917, in the prestigious magazine 'The Studio.' At the time, the world was still reeling from the shock of the war, and this image of innocence and tranquility would have been a welcome respite for readers. The artist of this work is not definitively known, but it is believed to be the creation of Wilfred Gabriel de Glehn (1870-1951), a renowned Irish painter who was known for his landscapes and figurative works. Despite the uncertainty surrounding the artist's identity, the painting remains a poignant reminder of a time long past, when the world was at peace, and the simple pleasures of nature could provide solace and inspiration.
