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.

Freggi Dell'Architettura,
EDITORS COMMENTS
published in 1645, is an exquisite and intricately detailed architectural masterpiece by the renowned Italian artist Agostino Mitelli. This stunning work, a bound volume of 48 etched plates on 24 leaves, showcases two plates per leaf, presenting a total of 96 architectural wonders. The images, with their crisp lettering and elegant dedication plate, transport the viewer back in time to the 17th century. The volume, now a cherished artefact in the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., is a testament to Mitelli's exceptional skill as an architectural draftsman. Each plate meticulously depicts various architectural features, from columns and pillars to arches and archways, with an almost photographic precision. The artist's ability to capture the essence of each structure, be it a grand palace or a simple farmhouse, is truly remarkable. The plates, etched with great care and detail, are a visual feast for anyone interested in the history of architecture. They offer a glimpse into the architectural heritage of Europe during the 17th century, providing valuable insights into the artistic and cultural trends of the time. The volume's grey-toned illustrations, with their bold lines and intricate details, continue to inspire architects, artists, and scholars alike, making "Freggi Dell'Architettura" an essential addition to any art or architecture collection. This bound volume, a testament to Mitelli's artistic genius, is a reminder of the power of art to transport us through time and space, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and complexity of the world around us. The National Gallery of Art is fortunate to have this historic work in its collection, and it continues to be a source of inspiration and education for all who visit.
