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.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite illustration by the renowned artist Arthur Rackham, depicting scenes from The Edda. With a rich blend of watercolour and gouache, Rackham skillfully brings to life the mystical world of Germanic mythology and Viking folklore. This artwork, part of a private collection, transports us back to medieval times with its traditional imagery and intricate details. The composition is filled with iconic figures such as Odin, Wotan, Sigurd, Siegfried, and Valkyries who play significant roles in Norse mythology. As we delve into the pages of this ancient saga through Rackham's brushstrokes, we are immersed in tales of heroism and adventure that have shaped German history. The influence of paganism during the Middle Ages is palpable in this piece as it beautifully captures the essence of pagan beliefs intertwined with allegory and literature. The Varangians or Varyags also make an appearance here - legendary warriors known for their connection to both Germanic and Russian cultures along the Varangian Way. As we gaze upon this remarkable work of art on inked paper, we cannot help but be reminded of epic sagas like Nibelungenlied or Volsunga Saga which continue to captivate audiences today. It serves as a testament to Rackham's mastery in book design while offering us a glimpse into the enchanting world where gods reign supreme and heroes embark on extraordinary quests.
