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 the Gods of Healing, a mesmerizing depiction of Asclepius and his son Telesphorus. Asclepius, also known as Aesculapius, is an ancient Greek god revered for his association with medicine. The image beautifully captures him holding the iconic snake-entwined staff that has become synonymous with the medical profession. The statue originates from the Palazzo Massimo alle Colonne (or alle Valle) in Rome and was skillfully drawn and engraved by Nicolas Dorigny. The attention to detail in this sculpture is truly remarkable, highlighting every intricate feature of these mythical figures. On the left stands Telesphorus, a hooded dwarf who presides over convalescence. His presence adds an intriguing element to the composition, symbolizing healing during recovery periods. Together, father and son represent different aspects of healing: Asclepius embodies expertise in medicine while Telesphorus personifies rejuvenation after illness or injury. This photograph transports viewers back to circa 1700 when this magnificent artwork was created. It serves as a testament to both Greek and Roman mythology's enduring influence on art throughout history. Whether you are captivated by ancient legends or appreciate fine craftsmanship, this print offers a glimpse into the rich tapestry of human imagination and our eternal quest for healing knowledge.
