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.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph, titled "Interior of the Temple at Esna, Upper Egypt, 1838" takes us on a mesmerizing journey back in time. Created by the talented artist David Roberts and engraved by Louis Haghe, this print showcases the remarkable architecture and religious significance of ancient Egypt. The scene depicts a group of men peacefully sleeping inside the temple as sunlight filters through intricately carved pillars. The temple is dedicated to Khnum, an Egyptian god associated with creation and fertility. The serene atmosphere evokes a sense of tranquility and reverence for the divine. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported to a different era - the 19th century when archaeological discoveries were shedding light on Egypt's rich history. This lithograph not only captures the beauty of ancient Egyptian art but also serves as an invaluable record for archaeologists studying this period. The meticulous attention to detail in both composition and execution highlights Roberts' artistic prowess while Haghe's engraving technique brings depth and texture to every element within the print. Now housed in London's Victoria and Albert Museum collection, this piece stands as a testament to human curiosity about our past. It reminds us that even centuries later, we continue to be fascinated by ancient civilizations like those found along the banks of the Nile River in Egypt.
