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 photo print, titled "ACA-F-043834-0000" transports us back in time to ancient Egypt. The image showcases a remarkable Egyptian stele adorned with a funerary inscription of Weaponry Commissioner Hatici from the 18th dynasty. This exquisite artifact can be found on display at the Museo Archeologico in Florence. The photograph, taken around 1931, beautifully captures the intricate details and craftsmanship of this historical treasure. Dating back to 1550-1292 BC, this stele holds immense significance as it provides insights into Egyptian mythology and beliefs surrounding death and the afterlife. As we gaze upon this artwork, our eyes are drawn to various elements that symbolize different aspects of Egyptian culture. The depiction of an eye represents protection and divine guidance while parts of the body remind us of the importance placed on physical well-being in ancient times. The presence of nudity highlights the Egyptians' reverence for human anatomy as they believed it was essential for eternal life. We also notice references to Horus, a prominent deity associated with kingship and protection. Moreover, this stele features a hybrid divinity figure personage whose identity remains shrouded in mystery but adds an aura of mysticism to the artwork. It serves as a poignant reminder that even though centuries have passed since its creation, there is still much we do not fully understand about ancient civilizations. Alinari Fratelli's skillful photography allows us to appreciate every intricate detail captured within this image. Through their lens, we are transported across time and space to witness firsthand one small fragment from Egypt's rich cultural tapestry. Displayed proudly at Florence's Archaeological Museum, this photograph invites viewers on a journey through history – inviting contemplation about life's transience and humanity's enduring fascination with mythology and spirituality.
