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 intricate beauty of the back of the gold mask from the Treasure of Tutankhamun. Crafted during the New Kingdom period, around 1340 BC, by skilled artisans of the Egyptian 18th Dynasty, this masterpiece is now housed in the Egyptian National Museum in Cairo. The image reveals a mesmerizing combination of gold and semi-precious stones meticulously inlaid to create an awe-inspiring design. Atop this regal creation rests a vulture's head, symbolizing sovereignty over upper Egypt, while a cobra gracefully adorns its forehead, representing dominion over lower Egypt. These symbols serve as powerful reminders of Tutankhamun's authority and divine status. Discovered in 1922 by Howard Carter in the Valley of the Kings, this extraordinary artifact has since become an iconic representation of ancient Egyptian artistry and culture. The attention to detail is evident even on closer inspection - every curve and contour reflects mastery over metalwork. The inclusion of a beard adds further significance to this portrait-like piece. Combined with a nemes headdress worn by pharaohs during that era, it emphasizes Tutankhamun's royal lineage and sacred role within society. As we gaze upon this remarkable photograph captured by Bridgeman Images, we are transported back thousands of years into ancient Egypt – marveling at their advanced craftsmanship and honoring their enduring legacy.
