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 evocative portrait captures the distinguished visage of Sir Charles Lock Eastlake, an English painter and art critic of great significance in the 19th century art world. Born in 1793, Eastlake rose to prominence as a painter in watercolors and oil, and later gained recognition as a leading art critic and historian. His expertise in the fields of art and art history led him to be appointed as the Director of the National Gallery in London from 1855 until his death in 1865. The image showcases Sir Charles in formal attire, donning a high collar and waistcoat, which were fashionable during the Victorian era. The oval-shaped print, signed by the artist or Mayall, who may have taken the photograph, adds to the historical significance of the piece. Eastlake's piercing gaze and the intricate details of his clothing transport us back to a time when art and culture were undergoing significant transformations. Eastlake's contributions to the art world extended beyond his own creations. He was a prolific writer and published several influential books on art history, including "A History of the Painters of Italy," which remains a valuable resource for scholars and art enthusiasts today. His advocacy for the preservation and study of art, as well as his promotion of new artistic movements, cemented his place in the annals of art history. This portrait of Sir Charles Lock Eastlake serves as a testament to his enduring legacy and the pivotal role he played in shaping the art world during the Victorian era.
