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 wood engraving, published in 1881, showcases the regal figure of Henry I (c. 876-936), a prominent member of the noble family of Liudolfinger. Hailing from Saxony, he served as Duke from 912 until his ascent to King of East Francia in 919, ruling until his death in 936. The intricate woodcut engraving is based on a fresco by Alfred Rethel, a renowned German painter who lived from 1816 to 1859. The original fresco adorned the Roemer at Frankfurt / Main but tragically fell victim to destruction during World War II in 1944. However, this exquisite print allows us to appreciate and preserve its beauty for generations to come. Rendered with an oriental style reminiscent of ancient woodblock art dating back centuries earlier, this image transports us back to the medieval era when Henry I reigned over Germany. The sculpture-like depiction captures his commanding presence and royal stature within Romanesque aesthetics. As we delve into this piece of history through visual artistry, we are reminded not only of Henry I's significant role in shaping German culture but also how art can transcend time and preserve moments that would otherwise be lost forever.
