Child Cleaning Engraving 1882 19th Century Engraving Doorstep
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
In this vintage engraving from 1882, titled "Cleaning The Doorstep" we are transported back to the Victorian era. The image showcases a young child diligently scrubbing the doorstep of a grand house, capturing a moment frozen in time. This exquisite piece of historic art offers us a glimpse into the culture and daily life of that bygone era. The illustrative technique used in this engraving is truly remarkable, with intricate details meticulously etched onto the print. Every stroke brings to life the textures and patterns found on both the child's clothing and the stone doorstep itself. The artist's skillful use of shading creates depth and dimension, adding an extra layer of realism to this nostalgic scene. As we admire this enchanting 19th-century engraving, it is impossible not to reflect upon how different our lives are today compared to those depicted here. It serves as a reminder of simpler times when children were expected to contribute their share towards household chores at such tender ages. This retro-styled artwork from Arkheia evokes feelings of nostalgia for an era long gone but still cherished in our collective memory. It reminds us that history has its own unique beauty worth preserving and appreciating.
