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 print showcases the intricate and awe-inspiring Roman Military Dress, as depicted in the 1864 publication "Trachten der Voelker". Created by renowned German artist Albert Kretschmer, this coloured lithograph beautifully captures the essence of ancient Rome's military might. The image features a formidable soldier adorned in traditional costume and livery, standing tall with his shield and spears. A standard bearer proudly displays the Roman emblem while a horn blower adds a melodic touch to the scene. The soldier's armor and helmet exude strength and resilience, accentuated by an elegant plume that crowns his head. Intriguingly, we also see other figures surrounding our central warrior. A whip-wielding lictor symbolizes authority and protection as a bodyguard to an army commander or leader. This depiction hints at triumphs achieved on battlefields where golden wreaths were bestowed upon victorious warriors alongside laurel leaves. The presence of scepters, staffs, togas, magistrates, officers alludes to the hierarchical structure within ancient Rome's military system. Each element tells its own story about power dynamics prevalent during that era. This remarkable artwork not only offers us a glimpse into ancient Roman history but also serves as a testament to their enduring influence on contemporary society. It is truly fascinating how one single image can encapsulate so much rich cultural heritage within its frame.
