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 print showcases a remarkable woodcut from the 16th century titled "FIRE, 16TH CENTURY. Saint Florian, patron saint of firefighters". Crafted by the talented German artist Hans Schaufelein in 1516, this piece beautifully captures the essence of firefighting during that era. The woodcut depicts Saint Florian, revered as the patron saint of firefighters, amidst a raging fire. Clad in traditional Catholic attire and adorned with a halo above his head, he stands tall and resolute against the backdrop of billowing smoke and flames. With a bucket in hand and surrounded by men battling the inferno with water, Saint Florian symbolizes bravery and protection against fire hazards. Schaufelein's masterful technique is evident in every detail of this woodcut. The intricate lines and textures bring life to each element portrayed - from the flickering flames to the expressions on each man's face as they work together to combat this destructive force. As we gaze upon this historical artwork, it serves as a reminder of both our past struggles with fires and our enduring admiration for those who risk their lives to protect others. This powerful image resonates not only with its artistic beauty but also with its representation of courage and unity in times of crisis.
