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 print showcases the infamous Sir Mordred, known as the ultimate traitor in Arthurian legend. Illustrated by Howard Pyle in his renowned work "The Story of the Grail and the Passing of Arthur" around 1910, this lithograph captures the essence of evil and treachery. Clad in formidable armor with a menacing sword at his side, Sir Mordred stands tall as a symbol of betrayal. His helmet conceals any trace of remorse or compassion, emphasizing his malevolent nature. The artwork belongs to The Stapleton Collection and is now part of a private collection. Steeped in mythology and medieval lore, this illustration transports us back to an era where knights fought for honor and chivalry prevailed. However, Sir Mordred defies these noble ideals; he represents darkness lurking within even the most legendary tales. Howard Pyle's masterful engraving brings this mythological figure to life with intricate detail that captivates both children and adults alike. It serves as a reminder that not all heroes are virtuous, nor all villains devoid of complexity. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing image from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we cannot help but be drawn into Sir Mordred's enigmatic presence. This timeless piece invites contemplation on themes such as loyalty, deceit, and the consequences that arise when trust is shattered – making it an invaluable addition to any art enthusiast's collection.
