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
The captivating print titled "Washington as a Master Mason, pub. 1870" offers a rare glimpse into the hidden world of Freemasonry during America's early years. The color lithograph showcases George Washington, the revered First President of the United States, in his role as a Master Mason. In this intriguing image, Washington is depicted wearing an elaborate apron adorned with symbolic emblems that represent his affiliation with the secretive society. Surrounding him are fellow members of the lodge engaged in what appears to be a solemn meeting. The interior setting exudes an air of mystery and exclusivity, hinting at the clandestine nature of their gatherings. As one delves deeper into this artwork, it becomes evident that Freemasonry played a significant role in shaping America's foundation. These symbols and rituals were embraced by many influential figures known as Founding Fathers who sought to establish principles such as liberty and equality for all citizens. The print not only captures Washington's pivotal position within American history but also serves as a testament to his commitment to brotherhood and enlightenment ideals espoused by Freemasonry. It stands as a reminder of how secret societies have influenced our nation's development while leaving behind enigmatic legacies for future generations to unravel. This remarkable piece from Fine Art Finder allows us to appreciate both the artistic merit and historical significance encapsulated within its frame—a visual gateway into an era where symbolism held great power and secrets were whispered among trusted brethren.
