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 Conquest of Arzila in 1471" tapestry, created by the Portuguese School in the 15th century. The tapestry is currently housed at Collegiata, Pastrana, Spain. Depicting a significant battle fought from August 24th to 28th in 1471, it portrays King Afonso V of Portugal leading his army against the Moorish army (the Wattasids) in Morocco. Known as Afonso The African due to his campaigns in Morocco, he was the tenth king of Portugal from 1438 to 1481. The artwork beautifully captures various elements such as soldiers, ships, castles, and banners that symbolize this historic conquest. It highlights the naval strength of the Portuguese armada and their victory over Moroccan forces. The fortified town of Arzila in northern Morocco serves as a backdrop for this intense battle scene. With its drawbridge and defensive walls visible on one side and boats sailing along the coast on another side, it provides a glimpse into both land and maritime warfare strategies employed during that era. This print not only showcases an important historical event but also offers insights into religious conflicts between Muslims and Christians during this period. It serves as a reminder of how art can preserve moments from our past while providing us with valuable knowledge about different cultures and civilizations.
