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.

The Body of the Dead Christ, detail of the feet
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a hauntingly powerful painting by Hans Holbein the Younger. Created in 1521, this tempera on limewood masterpiece captures the raw emotion and physicality of death. Measuring 30.5x200 cm, it is housed in the Kunstmuseum in Basel, Switzerland. In this particular detail, our focus is drawn to Christ's feet - a poignant reminder of his humanity and sacrifice. The meticulous attention to detail is evident as we see every contour and wrinkle on his lifeless skin. The artist's signature and date are prominently displayed alongside the feet, adding an air of authenticity to this profound work. Holbein masterfully depicts not only the wounds inflicted upon Jesus' body but also hints at decay and putrefaction with subtle touches like discolored flesh and traces of blood. Through these elements, he invites viewers to contemplate mortality and reflect on their own mortality. This painting serves as a testament to Holbein's exceptional skill in capturing human anatomy with precision while evoking deep emotional responses from its audience. It stands as a timeless representation of Christ's suffering that continues to resonate with viewers even today.
