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.

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 exquisite beauty of a historical masterpiece, "Col Lat 9428 f. 15v Initial T; The Ascension of Christ" found in the Drogo Sacramentary from the 9th century. Created by an anonymous French artist, this illuminated manuscript is currently housed in the Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, France. The image captures a pivotal moment in Christian iconography - The Ascension of Christ. Painted on vellum with meticulous attention to detail, it depicts Jesus ascending into heaven while surrounded by his disciples who gaze up at him with awe and reverence. The hand of God reaches down from above, symbolizing divine intervention and guidance. What makes this artwork truly remarkable is its stunning use of color and intricate design. An inhabited initial serves as the focal point, adorned with delicate patterns and vibrant hues that bring life to every stroke. This illumination not only enhances the visual impact but also adds depth and meaning to the narrative. Originally commissioned for Archbishop Drogo of Metz during his tenure from 844-855 AD, this sacred piece has stood the test of time as a testament to medieval craftsmanship and devotion. Its significance extends beyond religious symbolism; it represents a rich cultural heritage that continues to inspire art enthusiasts worldwide. As we admire this photograph print today, we are reminded of our connection to history through art's ability to transcend time and evoke emotions across generations.
