FSC real wood frame with double mounted 10x8 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 17x15 inches (431x381mm). 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 from 1513 by Hans Baldung Grien depicts the mythical figures known as "The Fates". In Greek mythology, these three powerful goddesses were believed to control the destinies of all mortals. Lachesis, Atropos, and Clotho are beautifully portrayed in this Renaissance artwork. In the image, we see the three Fates standing beneath a majestic tree. Each figure represents a different aspect of destiny. Lachesis holds a distaff, symbolizing the thread of life that she measures and determines its length. Atropos wields her scissors with precision, ready to cut the thread when it is time for someone's life to end. Finally, Clotho spins new threads on her spindle, representing birth and creation. These divine women are depicted naked, emphasizing their vulnerability and connection to nature. Surrounding them are cherubs who seem fascinated by their power over human lives. Hans Baldung Grien's woodcut technique adds depth and texture to this ancient mythological scene. The fine details capture every delicate line of thread being spun or cut by The Fates' hands. This print serves as a reminder of our own mortality and how our lives can be shaped by forces beyond our control. It is an exquisite representation of Greek mythology brought to life through German Renaissance artistry.
