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 showcases a remarkable relief depicting apostles, originating from the Abbaye de Saint-Guilhem du Desert in France. Created by the French School during the 12th century, this stone masterpiece is now housed at the Musee de la Societe Archeologique in Montpellier. The intricate craftsmanship of this Romanesque artwork is truly awe-inspiring. Each apostle is meticulously carved with stunning attention to detail, showcasing their distinct features and expressions. The artist's skillful technique brings these biblical figures to life, capturing their devotion and spirituality. As we gaze upon this ancient relic, we are transported back in time to a medieval era where faith and religion played a central role in people's lives. This relief serves as a testament to the enduring legacy of Christianity and its impact on art throughout history. The Abbaye de Saint-Guilhem du Desert itself holds great significance as an abbey that dates back centuries. It was once home to devout male disciples who dedicated themselves to religious contemplation and service. Through this photograph, we can appreciate not only the artistic mastery behind this piece but also its historical importance within the context of religious architecture and iconography. It serves as a reminder of our shared cultural heritage and invites us to reflect on the profound influence that faith has had on human civilization over time.
