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 the exquisite artwork of "Ms. De Sphaera fol. 12v The Moon" created in 1470 by an Italian School during the 15th century. Housed in the Biblioteca Estense in Modena, Emilia-Romagna, Italy, this vellum masterpiece offers a glimpse into medieval navigation and astrology. The focal point of the image is a beautifully illuminated depiction of the moon surrounded by intricate details that symbolize its significance as a navigational guide and zodiac sign for Scorpio. A fleet of ships gracefully sails across the sea beneath the celestial body's watchful gaze, their sails billowing with wind as they navigate through treacherous waters. Intriguingly, one ship stands out from the rest with flames flickering atop it while a female figure holds a torch high above her head. This enigmatic scene adds an element of mystery to this medieval maritime tableau. The artist skillfully captures both scientific and astrological elements within this miniature painting, showcasing their understanding of meteorology and horoscopes during that era. The attention to detail is remarkable - from rigging to sailors' attire - creating an immersive experience for viewers. As we admire this rare piece from history, we are transported back to a time when caravels ruled the seas and astrology guided explorations. It serves as a testament to human curiosity and our unyielding desire for knowledge even in ancient times.
