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 "METHUSELAH & HIS WIFE" created by Hans Sebald Beham in 1530, transports us back to ancient times. The artwork depicts a moment from the Old Testament, showcasing Methuselah and his wife as central figures. In this scene, we witness an elderly Israelite couple who are believed to have lived exceptionally long lives according to biblical accounts. Methuselah's name has become synonymous with longevity, as he is said to have lived for an astonishing 969 years. His wife stands beside him, her presence symbolizing their enduring companionship throughout the ages. Beham's intricate woodcut technique brings depth and texture to the image while capturing the essence of these legendary characters. The artist skillfully portrays both husband and wife with reverence and dignity despite their nudity being a common artistic convention during that era. "METHUSELAH & HIS WIFE" serves as a testament to the rich history of Christianity and Hebrew traditions intertwined within artistry. This woodcut print not only showcases Beham's talent but also invites viewers into a world where faith meets creativity. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are reminded of the power of storytelling through visual representation – how it can transport us across centuries and connect us with our ancestors' beliefs and experiences.
