FSC real wood frame with double mounted 24x20 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 31x27 inches (787x685mm). 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 engraving, titled "Allegory on Oliver Cromwell," captures the essence of one of England's most controversial and enigmatic figures. Oliver Cromwell, the victor in the English Civil War, is depicted here in a powerful and symbolic manner by the skilled hand of Crispijn de Passe II. In this intricate artwork from the 17th century, we see Cromwell portrayed as a soldier and a tyrant, embodying both his military prowess and his reputation for authoritarian rule. The allegorical elements woven throughout the composition add layers of meaning to this portrayal of a man who remains a complex figure in history. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every line and shadow, creating a sense of depth and drama that draws viewers into Cromwell's world. From his stern expression to the subtle symbolism surrounding him, there is much to unpack in this striking image. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of Cromwell's lasting impact on England and Europe during his time as leader. His legacy continues to be debated and scrutinized centuries later, making this engraving not just a work of art but also a window into an important chapter in history.
