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.

1. Title: "Philippe de Commynes (1447-1511): A Prominent French Statesman and Chronicler" 2. Description: This evocative portrait captures the enigmatic figure of Philippe de Commynes, a significant French statesman and chronicler of the late Middle Ages. Born in 1447, Commynes' life spanned a period of great political upheaval and change, making him an invaluable witness to the events of his time. 3. Composition: The portrait, believed to have been created around 1511, showcases Commynes in a thoughtful and introspective pose, with his gaze fixed on the horizon. His tonsured head and wavy hair are framed by a dark robe, adding to the sense of gravity and wisdom that emanates from the image. The background features a subtle and intriguing pattern of shells, possibly symbolizing his connection to the sea or the passage of time. 4. Historical Context: Commynes served as a trusted advisor to several French monarchs, including Louis XI and Charles VIII. He was a key player in the political intrigues of the French court and played a significant role in the Wars of the League of Cambrai. Commynes' memoirs, "Mémoires," are an invaluable source of information about the political and social history of the late Middle Ages in France. 5. Legacy: Philippe de Commynes' enduring influence can be seen in his role as a chronicler and statesman. His memoirs provide a unique perspective on the events of his time and offer valuable insights into the political and social dynamics of the late Middle Ages.
