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.

The image showcases an imaginary view of this legendary Greek city-state, with the majestic Mount Taygetus standing tall and proud as a backdrop.

The artist's attention to detail is evident as they depict the architectural marvels that adorned the cityscape. From grand temples to sturdy fortifications, every structure reflects the strength and resilience for which Sparta was renowned. The bustling streets are filled with citizens going about their daily lives, giving us a sense of what it might have been like to live in this ancient civilization. But it is undoubtedly Mount Taygetus that steals the show. Its towering presence serves as a constant reminder of nature's power and influence over human affairs. As we gaze at its snow-capped peaks reaching towards the heavens, we can almost feel ourselves transported back in time. Ken Welsh has masterfully captured this enchanting scene through his lens, allowing us to appreciate both the artistic vision behind it and our connection to history.
