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 captures a significant moment in history, showcasing Emperor Charlemagne (747-814) surrounded by his principal officers as he receives Alcuin (c. 735-804). The painting, created by Jean Victor Schnetz (1787-1870), depicts the emperor seated on his majestic throne, adorned with a crown and holding an orb and sceptre. The atmosphere is one of grandeur and power as Charlemagne's courtiers stand around him, their presence emphasizing the importance of this occasion. Alcuin, an English scholar and theologian, presents manuscripts made by his monks to the emperor. These precious books symbolize knowledge, wisdom, and the intellectual pursuits that flourished during Charlemagne's reign. The composition beautifully portrays the interior of the court at Louvre in Paris, France. A banner hangs proudly behind Charlemagne while books and manuscripts are scattered across a table nearby. The bishop stands beside Alcuin with his distinctive tonsure hairstyle marking him as a member of the Benedictine order. This image not only showcases historical figures but also highlights their contributions to art and culture during this period. It serves as a reminder of how powerful leaders like Emperor Charlemagne supported education and scholarship within their realms.
