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
1. Title: "William Mulready in his Last Years (1786-1863)" William Mulready, a renowned Irish-born English painter, is depicted in this evocative image as an elderly man, deep in thought and surrounded by the remnants of his artistic career. Born on October 11, 1786, in County Cork, Ireland, Mulready's artistic talent was evident from an early age. He studied under the tutelage of Sir William Beechey at the Royal Academy in London and quickly gained recognition for his mastery of historical and genre painting. Mulready's most famous works, such as "The Harvesters Returning" and "The Rainy Day," captured the essence of rural life and the struggles of the working class. His unique ability to convey the human condition with empathy and sensitivity resonated with audiences and cemented his place in the annals of British art history. As the years passed, Mulready's health began to decline, and he was forced to retire from painting. This photograph, taken in his later years, captures the melancholic beauty of an artist who had dedicated his life to his craft. The creases on his face, the furrowed brow, and the weary eyes all serve as testament to the toll that creativity and dedication can take on an artist. Despite his physical decline, Mulready remained an active member of the art community, serving as a professor at the Royal Academy and continuing to inspire and influence the next generation of artists. He passed away on January 25, 1863, leaving behind a rich artistic legacy that continues to captivate and inspire viewers to this day. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the human side of William Mulready, the artist, and the price that must be paid for the pursuit of artistic excellence. It invites us to reflect on the fleeting nature of life and the enduring power of art to touch our souls.
