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
In this print titled "Wimund telling his adventures to the monks of Byland, 1141" we are transported back in time to witness a mesmerizing moment. The image depicts Wimund, the Bishop of Man, recounting his extraordinary tales to a group of attentive monks at the monastery of Byland. The scene is filled with intrigue and curiosity as Wimund, despite being blind, captivates his audience with animated gestures and vivid descriptions. His weathered face bears the marks of a seasoned adventurer who has faced countless challenges and triumphs throughout his life. As he shares his stories, one can almost feel the energy in the room rise. The monks lean forward eagerly, their eyes fixed on Wimund's every move. They hang onto every word that spills from his lips as if they were precious gems. This engraving beautifully captures not only the essence of storytelling but also highlights the power it holds over people's imaginations. It reminds us that even in an age without modern technology or visual aids, words alone have the ability to transport us to distant lands and ignite our sense of wonder. Through this image, we are reminded of the timeless tradition of oral storytelling and its importance in preserving history and culture. It serves as a testament to human resilience and our innate desire for connection through shared experiences.
