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.

1. Title: "Rousseau's Retreat: A Glimpse into the Abode of the Philosopher of Nature at Moutiers-Travers" This evocative image transports us back in time to the serene and picturesque 18th-century Swiss village of Moutiers-Travers, where the renowned philosopher, writer, and artist Jean-Jacques Rousseau (1712-1778) found solace and inspiration. Nestled amidst the lush greenery and rolling hills, Rousseau's humble abode stands as a testament to his simple and contemplative lifestyle. Rousseau, a central figure in the French Enlightenment, spent the latter part of his life in this secluded retreat, having grown tired of the political turmoil and societal pressures that marked his earlier years. The tranquil surroundings of Moutiers-Travers provided him with the perfect environment to pen some of his most influential works, including "The Confessions" and "Emile, or On Education." The image captures the rustic charm of Rousseau's home, which blends harmoniously with its natural surroundings. The quaint stone cottage, adorned with ivy and framed by the verdant foliage, exudes an aura of peace and simplicity. The nearby lake, shimmering under the sun, adds to the idyllic setting, further emphasizing the philosopher's deep connection to nature. Rousseau's home at Moutiers-Travers is not just a historical landmark, but a symbol of the philosopher's enduring legacy. It serves as a reminder of the transformative power of nature and the importance of living in harmony with one's environment. As we gaze upon this image, we are invited to reflect on the wisdom of Rousseau's philosophy and the timeless beauty of the natural world. This photograph, taken from the extensive collection of Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a unique window into the past, allowing us to step into the world of one of history's most influential thinkers and appreciate the beauty and tranquility of his beloved retreat.
