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
In this photo print, we are transported back in time to ancient Sudan, where the powerful King Natakamani pays homage to Apedemak, the revered lion god of Kush. The temple engraving at Naqa showcases the rich and vibrant African artistry that flourished during this era. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of history, we can feel the weight of royal authority emanating from King Natakamani. His regal presence is juxtaposed against the majestic figure of Apedemak, symbolizing both strength and divinity. It is a testament to the deep religious beliefs held by the people of Kush. The intricate details etched into stone reveal not only artistic mastery but also a profound dedication to their faith. This engraving serves as a window into an empire that once thrived in what is now modern-day Sudan. Through this image, we are reminded of the significance placed on spirituality within ancient societies and how it shaped their daily lives. The Lion God of Kush was not just a deity; he represented protection, power, and prosperity for his worshippers.
