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
This print showcases Gustave Dore's exquisite engraving from 1870, depicting "The confusion of tongues" - a profound biblical scene. The Tower of Babel looms in the background, symbolizing ancient civilization and mankind's pursuit of reaching the heavens. This painted image beautifully captures the essence of original sin and its consequences. Dore's meticulous attention to detail is evident in this gilded etching, reminiscent of antiquities and classical style. It transports us back to a time when ziggurats stood tall, minarets pierced the sky, and religious illustrations held great significance. The image created in the 19th century effortlessly merges history with spirituality. As we gaze upon this old-fashioned masterpiece, we are reminded of our traditional cultures and their rich tapestry woven through time. The tower stands as a testament to human ambition while also representing confusion and mystery that lie within our past. In this visual art piece, Duncan1890 skillfully captures not only the architectural marvel but also concepts such as care, assistance, pleading for divine intervention amidst chaos. Christianity finds solace here as God listens attentively to humanity's plea for understanding. This print serves as an archaeological treasure trove where art meets archaeology; it invites us to explore ancient civilizations' beliefs and mythology through one artist's interpretation. With each glance at this antique engraved image, we delve deeper into history itself - unraveling its secrets while embracing its spiritual essence.
