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 noble figure of William Longespee, 1st Earl of Salisbury, who lived during the medieval era and left an indelible mark on history. The image is a reproduction of a mid-13th century manuscript found in Cambridge University Library, skillfully captured by Henry Shaw. William Longespee's lineage as the illegitimate son of King Henry II adds intrigue to his story. As a soldier and aristocrat, he embodied both strength and refinement. Clad in intricate chainmail armor, he stands proudly with a regal lion beside him - symbolizing his courage and power. The effigy depicted in this portrait serves as a testament to Longespee's legacy. It immortalizes his presence through time, reminding us of his significant contributions to society. His shield bears heraldic emblems that represent his noble heritage and prowess on the battlefield. Longespee's longspear rests at his side, signifying not only his military might but also serving as a reminder of the chivalric code he upheld throughout his life.
