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 photograph captures the exquisite beauty of two capitals adorned with sculpted nude human figures in the cloister of the Cathedral of Monreale. The cathedral, located in Monreale, Italy, is a remarkable example of Romanesque architecture from the Middle Ages. Dating back to around 1175-1200 AD, these capitals stand as timeless testaments to the artistic mastery of their creators. Each capital tells its own story through intricate details and symbolism. A male figure, representing strength and power, stands tall with an air of confidence. His muscular physique serves as a reminder of human potential and resilience. Beside him stands a female figure embodying grace and elegance. Her curvaceous form exudes femininity while also symbolizing fertility and nurturing qualities. Together, they create a harmonious balance between masculine and feminine energies within this sacred space. The high relief work on these sculptures brings them to life as they seem to emerge from the stone columns that support them. Delicate acanthus leaves intertwine with their bodies, adding organic elements inspired by nature's beauty. Photographed around 1929 by Anderson for Alinari, this image not only showcases exceptional craftsmanship but also provides us with a glimpse into Europe's rich cultural heritage during the first millennium AD onwards. As we admire this artwork captured through time's lens, let us appreciate how it represents more than just decoration or architectural elements; it encapsulates abstract concepts such as allegory and symbolism while celebrating both human form and our connection to nature itself.
