17"x15" (43x38cm) Premium Frame
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 renowned Italian navigator and explorer, Amerigo Vespucci (1454-1512). Engraved by Jan van der Straet, also known as Giovanni Stradano, this image captures the essence of Vespucci's adventurous spirit during the Renaissance era. Vespucci is depicted standing confidently on the deck of a majestic galleon ship, surrounded by symbols of his maritime journey. With a sextant in hand, he navigates through uncharted waters with determination and expertise. The presence of sea monsters and mythical creatures such as Neptune, Triton, and mermaids adds an air of mystery to this scene. As a close friend and companion of Christopher Columbus, Vespucci played a significant role in European exploration. It was his voyages that led to the realization that the lands discovered were not part of Asia but an entirely new continent - America. In fact, it is from his name that we now refer to these vast lands. This engraving beautifully captures Vespucci's legacy as one who dared to venture into unknown territories and expand our understanding of the world. It serves as a reminder of humanity's insatiable curiosity for discovery and our relentless pursuit to uncover new horizons.
