23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 16x12 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 23x19 inches (584x482mm). 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 self-portrait by Fortunino Matania, titled "My Studio," offers a rare glimpse into the world of this renowned Italian artist during his later years. Painted around 1955, the image finds Matania seated at his easel in his studio located at 104 Priory Road in the artistic enclave of Hampstead, London. The room is filled with the paraphernalia of an artist's life: brushes, palette, paint tubes, and a smock draped over a chair. The backdrop, adorned with classical motifs, reveals Matania's affinity for historical and mythological themes that characterized his oeuvre. The artist's intense gaze is focused on the canvas before him, while his hands deftly manipulate the bristles of his brush. The intricate details of the painting, from the folds of his costume to the textures of the props, attest to Matania's mastery of the medium. The presence of a mannequin dressed in a 16th-century costume in the corner of the studio suggests that the artist was engaged in the meticulous process of creating a detailed study for a future work. Matania's studio, much like his art, was a testament to his passion for history and the human form. This self-portrait not only serves as an intimate record of the artist at work but also offers a glimpse into the rich artistic legacy of Hampstead, a place that nurtured the creative spirits of countless artists throughout history.
