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.

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 woodcut print from the Cologne Bible, we witness a powerful moment between Saint Paul and a messenger. The scene takes us back to the 1st century, immersing us in the early days of Christianity. Saint Paul, known as an apostle and writer of many epistles in the New Testament, is depicted seated with an air of authority and wisdom. With his halo shining brightly above his head, he holds out an epistle towards the messenger standing before him. The composition beautifully captures both the medieval style and Renaissance influence prevalent during its creation in 1478-80. The intricate details showcase German craftsmanship at its finest, making it a true masterpiece of art history. The cityscape behind them hints at bustling urban life while also symbolizing the spread of Christianity throughout various communities. As we gaze upon this print, we can almost feel the weightiness of that letter being passed from one hand to another - a message carrying profound significance for those who would receive it. This image serves as a reminder not only of Saint Paul's pivotal role in shaping early Christian theology but also highlights how communication played a crucial part in spreading these teachings across vast distances. It invites us to reflect on our own methods of delivering messages today and appreciate how far we have come since this woodcut was first created centuries ago.
