23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 16x12 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 23x19 inches (584x482mm). 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
Caption: "MFC-S-000066-0004 - Statue of Atlas, a Majestic Symbol of Greco-Roman Mythology". This print showcases an exquisite statue from the Museo Nazionale in Naples. The subject is none other than Atlas, a prominent figure from ancient Greek and Roman mythology. Standing tall and proud, this male deity is depicted in all his divine glory. The sculpture portrays Atlas as a muscular and nude human figure, symbolizing strength and power. With the weight of the world resting upon his broad shoulders, he embodies the concept of endurance and resilience. This portrayal captures the essence of Atlas' role as the Titan who held up celestial spheres for eternity. Dating back to approximately 1860-1880, this artwork reflects influences from both the first and second centuries AD (I-II secc. ). Created by Michele Amodio, it exemplifies exceptional craftsmanship that has stood the test of time. Displayed within The National Archaeological Museum in Naples, this masterpiece serves as a testament to humanity's fascination with mythology throughout history. Its intricate details showcase not only artistic skill but also our enduring curiosity about divinities like Atlas. Notably featured in this photograph is an impressive word map or globe representing Earth itself—a symbolic representation of how Atlas carries our planet on his mighty shoulders. This inclusion adds depth to an already profound piece of artistry. A celebration of classical culture fused with timeless themes such as strength, divinity, and mythology—this remarkable statue continues to captivate viewers even today. It stands as a reminder that ancient tales can still inspire awe-inspiring works that transcend generations.
