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 vintage engraving, titled "Lady Godinas Rout Or Peeping Tom Spying Out Pope Joan" captures a moment of playful indulgence in a bygone era. The scene depicts a fashionable crowd engrossed in a game of cards at two tables, with the main focus on four individuals playing the intriguing game of Pope-joan. However, it is the captivating details that truly draw one's attention. In the foreground, we see a woman wearing an alluring loose-fitting semi-transparent dress that exposes her breasts, reflecting the romantic and daring fashion trends of that time. Behind her stands a man who appears to be completely distracted by his surroundings; he leans forward peering down her dress while reaching out to cut off a candle. This comical gesture adds an element of humor and mischief to the artwork. On the left side of this historic image dominates a rear view of an ample-bodied woman, emphasizing traditional beauty standards prevalent during this period. The meticulous engravement technique employed by James Gillray brings forth intricate details and textures throughout this nostalgic piece. As we explore this engraved image from 1796, we are transported back in time to witness not only historical art but also cultural norms and societal dynamics from centuries ago. It serves as both an artistic representation and historical documentation encapsulating elements from Victorian times – its fashion choices, social interactions, and even popular card games like Pope-joan. This antique print evokes feelings of nostalgia for those enamored with retro-styled artwork or enthusiasts seeking glimpses into our rich history. Its aged charm invites us to appreciate art's ability to transcend time while providing valuable insights into past eras.
