Chauffeur Models Named Renault Waits 1924
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
In this evocative photograph, a chauffeur, dressed in a smart uniform, stands near the edge of a tranquil river, his gaze fixed on the distant horizon. The object of his attention is a sleek and elegant Renault 40 CV, parked nearby. The Renault 40 CV, a symbol of French motoring excellence during the Roaring Twenties, was a popular model known for its advanced engineering and stylish design. The year is 1924, and the scene exudes an air of sophistication and luxury. The chauffeur's immaculate uniform, complete with cap and gloves, speaks of a bygone era when travel was a leisurely and indulgent experience. The Renault 40 CV, with its distinctive grille and flowing lines, is the epitome of automotive elegance, a testament to the ingenuity and innovation of the French automobile industry. The river, with its gentle current and reflective surface, adds to the serene atmosphere of the scene. The water mirrors the surrounding landscape, creating a sense of depth and perspective that draws the viewer in. The reflection of the Renault 40 CV and the trees on the riverbank create a beautiful, almost surreal, tableau. The photograph captures a moment of quiet contemplation, as the chauffeur waits for his passengers to arrive or for his next destination. The stillness of the scene is broken only by the occasional ripple on the water, the gentle rustle of leaves in the breeze, and the distant sound of birdsong. This image is a reminder of the romance and allure of early 20th century motoring, a time when travel was an adventure and the open road beckoned with the promise of new horizons.
