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 woodcut print, titled "ARMORER, 1568" takes us back to the mid-Renaissance era in Germany. Created by the talented artist Jost Amman in 1568, this piece showcases the skill and craftsmanship of a German armorer at work. Intriguingly detailed, the image depicts a bearded man diligently hammering away on a helmet inside his workshop. The armorer's focused expression reveals his dedication to his craft as he meticulously shapes and molds metal into protective armor pieces. The interior of the workshop is filled with various tools and materials that highlight the meticulous nature of armor manufacturing during this period. From calligraphy brushes to different types of hammers, every item serves its purpose in creating these intricate works of art. Amman's attention to detail extends beyond just capturing the physicality of an armorer at work; even the text accompanying this woodcut is beautifully rendered with an exquisite typeface. This adds another layer of authenticity and historical significance to the artwork. Through this woodcut print, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand one aspect of Renaissance Germany's rich cultural heritage - skilled craftsmen like this armorer who dedicated their lives to producing exceptional pieces that protected warriors on battlefields. "ARMORER, 1568" stands as a testament not only to Jost Amman's artistic talent but also as a celebration of human ingenuity and creativity during one of history's most transformative periods.
