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.

The Penitent Magdalene, 1664
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a striking polychrome wood print that captures the essence of repentance and redemption. Created by Pedro de Mena in the 17th century, this masterpiece can be found at the Museo Nacional de Escultura in Valladolid, Spain. The image portrays Mary Magdalene, a prominent figure in Christian tradition known for her transformation from a sinful life to one of penitence and devotion. The artist skillfully depicts her kneeling on sackcloth with long flowing hair cascading down her back. Her hands are clasped together tightly as she holds onto a knotted cord, symbolizing self-restraint and discipline. A crucifix rests against her chest, emphasizing her deep connection to Christ's sacrifice and ultimate forgiveness. The intricate details of the sculpture bring out the emotions etched on Mary's face - sorrow mixed with hope for salvation. This artwork serves as an inspiration for those seeking spiritual enlightenment or grappling with their own inner struggles. It reminds us that no matter our past mistakes or transgressions, there is always room for redemption and growth. "The Penitent Magdalene" invites viewers to reflect upon their own journey towards self-discovery and forgiveness. Its timeless message resonates across cultures and generations, making it an enduring piece of art that continues to captivate audiences worldwide.
