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. Overall outside dimensions are 17x15 inches (431x381mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. 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 captures a significant moment in history, as depicted in the Grandes Chroniques de France. Fol. 11r St. Remigius, Bishop of Rheims (c. 438-533), stands tall and regal, baptizing and anointing Clovis I (465-511), the esteemed King of the Franks. The scene is rich with symbolism and detail that transports us back to 498 AD. The focal point of this image is undoubtedly the baptism itself, taking place within a grand barrel-like tub adorned with intricate designs. St. Remigius pours water over Clovis I's head while holding a sacred vessel filled with holy oil for anointment - both crucial elements in this early Christian ritual. Clovis I, donning his royal crown, kneels before the bishop with reverence and humility as he embraces his newfound faith under St. Remigius' guidance. This pivotal event marked not only Clovis I's personal conversion but also signaled the official adoption of Christianity by the Frankish kingdom. The medieval setting adds to the mystique surrounding this historical moment; every brushstroke on vellum tells a story from centuries past. Preserved within Bibliotheque Municipale in Castres, France, this artwork serves as a testament to both religious devotion and political power during medieval times.
