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
PEASANT PREACHER, 1524: A Glimpse into the Reformation Era in Nuremberg, Germany". This woodcut print from 1524 transports us back to a significant moment in history - the Protestant Reformation. In this scene, we witness a humble peasant delivering an impassioned sermon to a diverse audience at Nuremberg. The artist skillfully captures the essence of this transformative period through intricate details and expressive figures. The central figure is the peasant preacher himself, standing atop a stump with his scythe resting nearby. Despite his simple attire and lack of formal education, he commands attention as he speaks fervently about matters of faith and spirituality. Men and women alike are captivated by his words, their faces reflecting curiosity and deep contemplation. Amongst the crowd stands a young Bavarian boy wearing a cap; perhaps he represents hope for future generations seeking spiritual enlightenment amidst societal change. Seated on wooden benches, men listen intently while women engage in prayerful reflection. This woodcut serves not only as entertainment but also as an important historical artifact that sheds light on religious practices during this era of reform. It reminds us that profound messages can be delivered by unexpected messengers like this peasant preacher who defied social norms to share his beliefs with conviction. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork, let it serve as a reminder of the power of speech and how even those considered ordinary can have an extraordinary impact on society's collective consciousness.
