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.

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 oil on canvas print, titled "A marine sham-fight on the Y before Amsterdam, before 1710" takes us back to a thrilling battle scene in the 17th century. Painted by Abraham Storck, a renowned Dutch artist from the era, this masterpiece measures 59.7x89.1 cm and is currently housed at the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge. The painting depicts a dramatic maritime spectacle unfolding on the Y River just outside Amsterdam. The viewer is transported to an intense moment of conflict between two opposing forces at sea. Majestic galleons and gallant sailboats dominate the composition, their sails billowing against a picturesque seascape backdrop. Flags flutter proudly atop each vessel as they engage in this mock naval battle known as a sham-fight—a practice often employed for training purposes or entertainment during that time period. Storck's attention to detail shines through his meticulous rendering of rigging and pennant flags fluttering in the wind. With expert brushstrokes and masterful use of color, Storck captures both the grandeur and chaos of this historical event with remarkable precision. The painting not only showcases his technical prowess but also serves as a testament to Dutch maritime power during its golden age. As we gaze upon this extraordinary artwork, we are reminded of the rich history embedded within every stroke—evoking feelings of awe and admiration for those who sailed these treacherous waters centuries ago.
