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 vintage print takes us back to a momentous event in history - the first English female aerial journey. Mrs. Sage, an extraordinary woman of her time, fearlessly ascended into the skies alongside Mr. Biggin in Mr. Lunardi's balloon on June 29th, 1785. The portrait captures Mrs. Sage's half-length figure with a touch of romanticism and nostalgia that is characteristic of early 19th-century artwork. The engraving technique used by L. Shelly and Legrand adds depth and texture to this historic image, transporting us to a bygone era. As we gaze upon this enchanting illustration, we can't help but imagine the excitement and wonder that must have filled the air as Mrs. Sage embarked on her daring adventure. This brave woman defied societal norms and became an emblematic figure for women's empowerment during a time when such feats were reserved primarily for men. With its aged appearance and traditional Victorian style, this print serves as a poignant reminder of our rich historical heritage and the progress made over centuries past. Let this remarkable artwork inspire us to embrace our own aspirations with courage and determination while honoring those who paved the way for future generations.
