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.

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
The Boat of Souls: A Glimpse into Dante's Purgatory". This print transports us to the mystical realm of Dante's purgatory, as envisioned by the renowned artist Gustave Dore in 1870. The engraved image, skillfully captured by photographer D Walker, showcases a scene filled with profound symbolism and spiritual significance. In this idyllic depiction, we witness a group of people embarking on a transformative journey aboard a passenger craft that traverses the ethereal river. As they travel towards redemption and enlightenment, an archangel guides them through this otherworldly realm. The aura surrounding these hopeful souls reflects their yearning for salvation and their unwavering faith in heavenly realms. Dore's intricate illustration masterfully combines elements from medieval Christian beliefs with his own artistic interpretation. Seraphim and angels hover above the boat while ghostly figures hint at the presence of speculative beings from beyond our mortal realm. This visual artwork not only invites contemplation about life after death but also serves as a testament to humanity's enduring quest for spirituality and hope. It encapsulates themes central to Catholicism while transcending religious boundaries to evoke universal emotions. As we gaze upon this extraordinary piece created over a century ago, we are reminded of art's power to transcend time and connect us with profound concepts and ideas. Duncan1890 has expertly preserved this masterpiece from Gustave Dore, allowing us all to embark on our own imaginative voyage through the realms of spirituality.
