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 stunning chromolithograph captures the intricate details of 12th century chainmail suits of armour and helms worn by German knights. The image, sourced from manuscripts in the Hamburg library, showcases the military costumes of these medieval warriors with precision and artistry.
Dr. Jakob Heinrich von Hefner-Alteneck, a renowned German museum curator, archaeologist, and illustrator, expertly brought these historical artifacts to life through his meticulous illustrations. His lithograph work for Hefner-Alteneck's Costumes, Artworks and Appliances from the Middle Ages to the 17th Century in Frankfurt in 1889 is a testament to his dedication to preserving and showcasing medieval history.
The attention to detail in this print is truly remarkable - from the delicate interlocking rings of chainmail to the sturdy helmets adorned with plumes. Each element tells a story of bravery and chivalry that defined the era of knighthood.
As you gaze upon this artwork, you can almost hear the clanking of swords and shields as these valiant knights rode into battle. It serves as a reminder of an age long past but not forgotten - where honour, courage, and loyalty were held in high esteem on the battlefield.
