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 photograph print, sourced from Mary Evans Picture Library, transports us back in time to the mid-19th century when the world of puppetry was a popular form of entertainment. In the center of the image, we find the iconic figure of Punch, a character synonymous with English puppet shows that originated in the 17th century. Punch, a mischievous and sometimes violent anti-hero, is depicted here with his trademark triangular hat, a long-nosed puppet face, and a wooden stick. Accompanying Punch is his loyal companion, Toby the Dog. Toby, a traditional character in the Punch and Judy show, is often portrayed as Punch's faithful friend and sidekick. The bond between Punch and Toby is a long-standing one, with their first recorded appearance together in the late 18th century. To the right of the image, a clown in full regalia adds an extra layer of delight and intrigue to the scene. Clowns were a common addition to Punch and Judy shows, providing an element of comedy and visual appeal for the audience. The clown's colorful costume, exaggerated features, and expressive face are all hallmarks of the era's clowning tradition. The photograph, estimated to be from the 1850s, offers a fascinating glimpse into the history of puppetry and the world of Punch and Judy shows. The image's authenticity and historical significance make it an invaluable addition to any collection focused on the history of theater, puppetry, or the cultural landscape of the Victorian era.
