31"x27" (79x69cm) Premium Frame
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. Overall outside dimensions are 31x27 inches (787x685mm). 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
In this haunting woodcut print titled "DEVIL AND CHILD, 1498" we are transported back to the late medieval period in Germany. The scene depicts a heart-wrenching moment as a child is forcibly taken away from his parents by none other than Satan himself. It is revealed that the family had made a pact with the devil, and now they must face the consequences of their ill-fated agreement. The artist skillfully captures the anguish and despair on the faces of both mother and father as they helplessly watch their beloved son being snatched away. The intricate details of this woodcut bring to life every emotion etched into their expressions, leaving us feeling an overwhelming sense of sorrow. This powerful image serves as a reminder of the eternal struggle between good and evil, showcasing how even seemingly innocent individuals can be enticed by darkness. It also highlights the importance of familial bonds and serves as a cautionary tale about making deals with malevolent forces. As we gaze upon this thought-provoking artwork, we cannot help but ponder on its deeper meaning: What choices led this family down such a treacherous path? How will they cope with losing their precious child? And most importantly, what lessons can we learn from their tragic story? "DEVIL AND CHILD, 1498" stands not only as an exquisite example of German woodcut artistry but also as a timeless testament to human vulnerability in the face of temptation and evil's grasp.
