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 piece of art titled "ZODIAC: VIRGO, 1482". Created in the late medieval period, this woodcut illustration is part of Gaius Julius Hyginus' Poeticon Astronomicon. Printed in Venice in 1482, it beautifully depicts Virgo, the Virgin constellation. The image portrays a celestial woman personifying Virgo with grace and elegance. She stands tall, holding a staff adorned with stars that symbolize her connection to the heavens above. Her wings gracefully extend from her back, representing her ethereal nature as she watches over the earthly realm. The intricate details captured in this woodcut are truly mesmerizing. The artist's skillful craftsmanship brings forth every delicate line and curve on the figure's flowing gown and serene facial expression. This artwork not only serves as an astronomical representation but also carries deeper symbolic meanings associated with Virgo's characteristics such as purity and wisdom. As we gaze upon this enchanting print, we are transported back to an era where astrology held great significance and mystique. It reminds us of our fascination with the cosmos throughout history and invites contemplation about our place within its vastness.
