23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 16x12 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 23x19 inches (584x482mm). 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 depicts the historic meeting between Charles the Bald, Holy Roman Emperor, and Roruk the Norseman in Nijmegen, 870. The vivid colors of this lithograph by Willem II Steelink bring to life a significant moment in European history. Intriguingly captured within this image is the clash of two powerful cultures - the Frankish empire represented by Charles the Bald and the fierce Vikings embodied by Roruk. This meeting symbolizes an attempt at diplomacy amidst a time of great tension and conflict. The composition beautifully portrays both men as they stand face-to-face, each exuding authority and strength. Their regal attire further emphasizes their status as royalty, with Charles donning his imperial robes while Roruk showcases traditional Norse garments. Nijmegen serves as an atmospheric backdrop for this encounter, its architecture reflecting both Dutch and Danish influences. The city's strategic location along major trade routes made it a crucial meeting point for leaders from different regions during this era. As we gaze upon this remarkable print, we are transported back to a pivotal moment in European history when empires clashed and alliances were forged. It reminds us of the complexity of human relationships across borders and cultures throughout time.
