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.

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 print captures the intriguing artwork titled "Monk Calf of Freiberg" by Lucas Cranach, the Elder. Created in 1523, this woodcut piece is housed in the Staatliche Museen in Berlin, Germany. The image depicts a scene from German history during the Renaissance period. Cranach's work delves into themes of sin and religious turmoil that were prevalent during this time. It satirically portrays a monk calf, symbolizing corruption within the Catholic Church. This provocative imagery reflects societal criticism towards the church and its practices. Intricately detailed and richly symbolic, Cranach's woodcut invites viewers to contemplate concepts such as indulgence, absolution, and damnation. With references to mythology and allegory intertwined with historical events like Martin Luther's Reformation movement, it offers a glimpse into an era marked by religious upheaval. This artwork not only serves as a visual representation of German history but also highlights Cranach's mastery as an artist. His ability to convey complex ideas through graphic arts is evident in every stroke of this thought-provoking woodcut. As we explore this print from Fine Art Finder by Bridgeman Images, we are reminded of how art can serve as a powerful medium for social commentary and reflection on our past.
