31"x27" (79x69cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 24x20 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 31x27 inches (787x685mm). 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
The print titled "God the Father and the Blessed Virgin Enthroned Attended by Angels" captures a powerful moment of divine connection. Created in the late 15th century by German artist Martin Schongauer, this engraving showcases Christ as Savior of the World blessing his mother Mary, who is crowned Queen of Heaven for her role as the divine mother. In this image, we witness a profound exchange between mother and son. As Christ bestows his blessings upon Mary, she humbly bows her head in prayerful devotion, appealing to God for the redemption of humanity. The intricate details and delicate lines in this print highlight Schongauer's mastery as an engraver during this period. During the 15th century, early printing methods revolutionized access to personal devotional images like this one. Previously limited to expensive mediums such as paintings or illuminated manuscripts, these prints made religious art more accessible to a wider audience. This particular print from Heritage Art/Heritage Images offers viewers an opportunity to connect with spirituality through visual representation. Displayed at The Cleveland Museum of Art, this artwork invites contemplation on themes of faith and salvation. It serves as a testament to both artistic skill and spiritual devotion during a time when printed images were transforming religious practices across Germany and beyond.
