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 print takes us back to the 19th century, showcasing a remarkable display of canine talent. In this artwork from the French popular science weekly La Science Illustree, we witness a woman engaging in an extraordinary act of instruction with her trained dogs. Standing tall and poised, she commands a Scottish deerhound to perform an awe-inspiring leap over a smaller dog perched on a stack of stools. The sheer height achieved by the leaping deerhound is truly impressive, reaching an astonishing 1.8 meters. This image not only highlights the incredible physical abilities of these animals but also showcases the strong bond between humans and their loyal companions. As we delve into this historical piece, it becomes evident that training dogs was not limited to modern times; even in the 1800s, people were dedicated to teaching their pets various skills. The woman's firm yet gentle guidance demonstrates her expertise as a dog trainer, emphasizing her role as both instructor and protector. Through this snapshot frozen in time, we are reminded of our enduring fascination with nature's wonders and our desire to understand and connect with different species. It serves as a testament to humanity's ongoing quest for knowledge about our world's diverse fauna while celebrating the cultural significance placed on animal training during that era. This intriguing glimpse into history offers us insight into how far we have come in understanding animal behavior while acknowledging those who paved the way for our current understanding of zoology and biology.
