FSC real wood frame with double mounted 24x20 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 woodcut print titled "CONSTELLATION: HERCULES. Personification of Hercules" takes us back to the Renaissance era in Venice, Italy, specifically 1482. The artist skillfully depicts the legendary Greek hero Hercules in all his glory and might. Standing tall and nude, he personifies strength and courage as he wields his iconic club with determination. The intricate details of this artwork showcase the artist's mastery over woodcut techniques. Every line and curve is meticulously carved into the woodblock, resulting in a stunning portrayal of Hercules' muscular physique. Behind him, a magnificent tree symbolizes nature's resilience while stars form an ethereal backdrop representing the constellation itself. Hercules' heroic deeds are well-known throughout mythology, and this print captures some of his most famous triumphs. The lion skin draped over his arm signifies his victory over the Nemean Lion, while a fearsome dragon coils at his feet - a reminder of how he vanquished the Hydra. With its medieval charm and Venetian flair, this woodcut transports viewers to another time where mythological tales were revered as much as historical events. It serves as both an homage to ancient legends and a testament to artistic craftsmanship during that period. Displayed proudly on any wall or art collection, this print evokes admiration for not only Hercules but also for the talented artists who brought these stories to life through their creative vision.
