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 a mesmerizing detail of tax inspectors from the 15th century. Painted on wood by the talented artist Pietro, Sano di (also known as Ansano di Pietro di Mencio), this artwork adorns a Biccherna, which served as the cover for the accounting register of Siena in Italy. The intricate painting captures a scene from Renaissance-era administration, depicting human and horse figures engaged in their taxing duties. The attention to detail is remarkable, with each figure exuding realism and conveying a sense of purpose. The horses stand tall and majestic, symbolizing power and authority. As we delve into this piece, we are transported back in time to witness an essential aspect of medieval life – taxation. This artwork not only reflects the economic realities of that era but also highlights the meticulous craftsmanship prevalent during the quattrocento period. Luisa Ricciarini's expert photography skillfully captures every brushstroke and color nuance present in this historic masterpiece. Through her lens, we can appreciate both the artistry involved in creating such works and gain insight into societal structures that shaped economies centuries ago. This print serves as a testament to our shared history while reminding us of how art has always been intertwined with various aspects of human existence – even something as mundane as tax collection can be transformed into an awe-inspiring visual narrative through artistic expression.
