23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 16x12 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 23x19 inches (584x482mm). 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 moment of camaraderie and conviviality among men in ancient Scandinavia. Taken from the illustration "Men drinking" by Olaus Magnus, this woodcut print is part of his renowned work Historia de Gentibus Septentrionalibus. Published in Rome in 1555, it offers a fascinating glimpse into the rituals and leisure activities of Nordic cultures. In this scene, a group of Norsemen can be seen gathered together, their carved mugs raised high as they engage in an age-old tradition of communal drinking. The intricate details on each mug reflect the craftsmanship and artistic sensibilities prevalent during that era. The relaxed postures and content expressions on their faces suggest a momentary respite from their daily lives - a chance to unwind and bond over shared experiences. It is through such rituals that these men forged strong social connections within their community. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the vibrant culture of ancient Scandinavia. We catch glimpses of Viking life beyond battles and conquests - moments where friendships were formed, stories were shared, and traditions were celebrated. This remarkable photograph serves as both an educational tool for understanding history's tapestry and as an aesthetic delight for art enthusiasts worldwide. Its presence reminds us that even centuries later, human connection remains at the heart of our existence – whether through raising mugs or engaging with timeless works like Olaus Magnus' Historia de Gentibus Septentrionalibus.
