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 the martyrdom of St. Catherine of Alexandria, a revered figure from the early 4th century A. D. The woodcut, created in 1530 by German artist Hans Sebald Beham, beautifully captures the intensity and significance of this historical event. In the image, we witness St. Catherine kneeling before her executioners with unwavering faith and courage. Surrounding her are men and women who have gathered to witness this tragic moment in ancient Alexandria. St. Catherine's regal presence is emphasized by her necklace, scepter, and scabbard, symbolizing her noble lineage as well as her commitment to Christianity. The composition skillfully portrays the dramatic elements of this scene: a wheel - an instrument used for torture - lies broken beside St. Catherine while a stump signifies both destruction and resilience. Her oppressors wear turbans that hint at their origins from distant lands. Hans Sebald Beham's woodcut exemplifies his mastery in capturing emotions through intricate details carved into woodblocks. This Renaissance-era artwork not only commemorates the life and death of Saint Catherine but also serves as a testament to religious devotion during early Christian times.
