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.

EDITORS COMMENTS
a masterpiece by the renowned French painter Gustave Courbet, captured the raw power and strength of human physique in this breathtaking painting created in 1853. Housed in the Museum of Fine Arts in Budapest, Hungary, this painting is a prime example of Courbet's realist style, which challenged the traditional artistic norms of his time. The painting depicts two brawny, muscular men engaged in a fierce wrestling match in an open-air setting. Their age-worn faces, etched with the signs of hard labor and the passage of time, add to the authenticity of the scene. The men's powerful bodies glisten with sweat, their muscles taut and defined, as they grapple with each other, their expressions a mix of determination, focus, and intensity. Courbet's use of naturalistic colors and bold brushstrokes adds to the painting's raw, unfiltered quality. The setting, with its lush greenery and rolling hills in the background, creates a sense of tranquility and serenity, contrasting the intensity of the wrestling match taking place in the foreground. "Wrestlers" is a testament to the strength and power of the human body, as well as a commentary on the primal nature of human competition. Courbet's contemporary European audience would have been drawn to the painting's bold depiction of masculinity and physicality, making it a significant work in the history of art. Today, it continues to captivate and inspire viewers with its raw, unapologetic portrayal of the human form.
