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 intricately detailed print, titled "The Peasant Life: Milking Time" by the renowned Flemish painter Jan Breugel the Elder, offers a captivating glimpse into the daily life of 16th-century peasants. The lower right-hand detail of this masterpiece, often overlooked yet rich in narrative, portrays a group of peasants engaged in the essential farming activity of milking cows. The scene is set in a rustic, idyllic landscape, with lush greenery and a clear, blue sky. The peasants, dressed in traditional attire, work together harmoniously, each with a specific role in the milking process. One man holds a bucket under the cow, while another uses a stool to sit comfortably as he milks. A young boy delivers fresh pails, and a woman watches over the process, her hands folded in observation. The cows, with their large, expressive eyes, seem almost human in their calm demeanor. This Velvet Bruegel print, created in 1625 but dated 1568, is a testament to the historical accuracy and attention to detail that Breugel is known for. The artist masterfully captures the authenticity of the peasant life, from their clothing and tools to their interactions and work routines. This print is an invaluable resource for historians, art enthusiasts, and anyone interested in understanding the daily life of rural communities during the Renaissance period. The intricate textures and rich colors of this print, as well as the engaging story it tells, make it a true masterpiece of historical art. The Milking Time detail from "The Peasant Life" is a reminder of the simple pleasures and communal spirit that defined rural life in the 16th century.
