17"x15" (43x38cm) Premium Frame
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.

This print takes us back in time to the Hall of Columns at Karnak, Egypt, during the early 20th century. The Great Hypostyle Hall, as it is also known, stands tall and majestic with its vibrant colors and intricate design. This Edwardian-era snapshot showcases the beauty of ancient Egyptian architecture and artistry. The hall's grandeur is emphasized by the multitude of towering columns that stretch towards the heavens.

These murals serve as a testament to the deep-rooted spirituality that permeated every aspect of ancient Egyptian life. As we gaze upon this remarkable image, we are transported to a different time and place – one filled with wonder and awe for this magnificent temple complex.
