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.

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.

Two Women with a Mirror,
EDITORS COMMENTS
a captivating masterpiece painted by the Italian Baroque artist Orazio Gentileschi around 1620, is currently housed at the Alte Pinakothek in Munich, Germany. This exquisite painting is a prime example of the artist's virtuosic use of chiaroscuro and the Mannerist tradition. The painting depicts two women, likely sisters, engaged in an intimate moment of self-reflection. One woman, dressed in a rich, red gown, gazes intently into the mirror, her expression a mixture of contemplation and vanity. The other woman, clad in a blue robe, looks on with a gentle smile, her reflection also visible in the mirror. The mirror, a symbol of self-awareness and vanity, reflects not only the physical appearance of the women but also their inner thoughts and emotions. The use of chiaroscuro, the contrast between light and dark, adds depth and dimension to the painting. The play of light on the women's faces and the intricately detailed folds of their clothing create a sense of three-dimensionality, drawing the viewer into the scene. The painting is also notable for its use of the Mannerist style, characterized by elongated figures, exaggerated gestures, and a sense of theatricality. The women's poses and expressions are heightened and dramatic, adding to the overall sense of intimacy and emotion in the painting. This work by Orazio Gentileschi is a fascinating glimpse into the world of European art during the 16th and 17th centuries. The painting invites discussion on themes of self-reflection, vanity, and the role of women in society during this period. The Two Women with a Mirror remains a beloved and intriguing work of art that continues to captivate viewers today.
