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 showcases a page from Euclid's Elementa Geometrica, translated into Latin and printed in 1482. The black and red woodcut print measures 30.5x21 cm and is part of a private collection. It is one of the earliest printed books featuring geometrical figures. The close-up shot allows us to appreciate the intricate details of this ancient work. The geometric shapes are meticulously depicted, demonstrating Euclid's profound understanding of mathematics. The lettering, in Latin text, adds an air of sophistication to the composition. The woodcut technique used to create this print gives it a unique texture and depth. The black color dominates the image, creating a striking contrast against the white background. Every line and curve is precisely carved into the woodblock, resulting in a visually stunning impression. The page is bordered by a beautiful leaf pattern that adds elegance to its overall design. This patterned border frames the text perfectly, drawing attention to each word written on the page. Published in Venice during the Renaissance period, this piece represents both Greek intellectual heritage and Italian artistic craftsmanship. Its significance lies not only in its historical value but also as an embodiment of human curiosity and pursuit of knowledge throughout centuries. Overall, this print captures not only an important moment in history but also serves as a reminder of humanity's continuous quest for understanding our world through science and art.
