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
This print titled "Grandfathers" takes us on a mesmerizing journey into the realms of mythology and ancient legends. The image depicts Virapatren, the fourth son of Shiva, who was believed to be born with an extraordinary physical form consisting of a thousand heads and two thousand arms. This unique portrayal is signed by P. Sonnerat as the painter and Poisson as the sculptor. The artwork originates from Pierre M. Sonnerat's renowned book "Voyages aux Indes orientales et a la Chine" published in 1782. In this extensive volume, Sonnerat delves into various aspects of Indian and Chinese culture, including their customs, religion, sciences, and arts. His work provides valuable insights into these fascinating civilizations. The sepia-toned print adds an air of antiquity to this already intriguing composition. It transports us back in time to an era when exploration and discovery were at their peak. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are reminded of the rich tapestry woven by human imagination throughout history. It serves as a testament to our innate curiosity about other cultures and our desire to understand them better. This print from Universal Images Group (UIG) captures not only the beauty but also the depth behind each brushstroke or chisel mark that brings forth such mythical beings onto canvas or stone. It invites us to ponder upon ancient tales passed down through generations while appreciating the artistic mastery involved in immortalizing them for posterity.
