Figures prepared by Baron von Hess for a painted window in Glasgow Cathedral: John the Baptist, 1862 Creator: Unknown
Figures prepared by Baron von Hess for a painted window in Glasgow Cathedral: John the Baptist, 1862. This great work of embellishing a national monument, the first of its kind that has been undertaken under the auspices of the Church of Scotland, affords a remarkable proof of the change which may be wrought in an ecclesiastical body by the tendency and inclination of the age. No longer the stern discourager of pictorial art, the Church of Scotland, has here shown herself to be its enlightened patron; for though, in conformity with her fundamental principles, rejecting obsolete quaintnesses and allusions, and having no respect for those mediaeval influences by which, south of the Tweed, "church art" seems hopelessly oppressed, she has placed before us representations intelligible to all alike, and from which the most refined and cultivated, taste may derive pleasure and instruction...The character of the draperies is borrowed from the Italian school, the folds being kept small, according to the proper treatment of drapery in glass. The ornament is in the mediaeval German style, and sufficiently accords with the architecture as not to farm any unpleasant contrast with it'. From "Illustrated London News", 1862

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.
