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 print showcases the masterpiece "Dutch Ships in a Calm Sea" by Willem van de Velde, the Younger. Painted around 1665, this oil on canvas artwork depicts a serene scene of warships preparing to set sail. The ships' majestic sails are being hoisted as their anchors are raised, signaling their imminent departure. In the foreground, a sloop carrying dignitaries gracefully rows past the fleet of warships. Trumpets resound and salutes are fired to honor these distinguished guests. This lively activity adds an air of grandeur and importance to the scene. The painting beautifully captures the essence of Dutch maritime power during the seventeenth century, known as the Dutch Golden Age. The meticulously detailed depiction of each ship's rigging, flags fluttering in the wind, and coat of arms proudly displayed on their hulls is truly remarkable. Van de Velde's skillful use of light and shadow creates a sense of depth and tranquility within this seascape composition. It transports viewers back in time to witness this significant moment in naval history. Displayed at Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, Netherlands, this artwork serves as a testament to Dutch naval prowess during that era. Its historical significance combined with its artistic brilliance make it an iconic representation of marine art from the Dutch Golden Age.
