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.

Joshua's Divine Intervention - A Spectacle of Faith and Power
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this oil painting by John Martin, we are transported back to the ancient biblical tale of Joshua Commanding the Sun to Stand Still upon Gibeon. With meticulous brushstrokes and a keen eye for detail, Martin brings to life this extraordinary moment in history. The scene unfolds on a rugged battlefield where Joshua, the valiant commander of the Israelite army, stands at the forefront. His outstretched arm gestures towards the heavens as he calls upon divine intervention. Above him, storm clouds gather ominously while rays of sunlight pierce through their darkened veil. As if frozen in time, archers armed with bows stand alongside their fellow soldiers amidst rocky hills and mountains. The atmosphere is charged with anticipation as hailstorms rage down from above - a testament to both nature's fury and God's awe-inspiring power. Martin skillfully captures not only the dramatic action but also conveys a deeper spiritual message within his artistry. Through his use of color and composition, he invites us to contemplate themes of faith, courage, and humanity's relationship with higher powers. This masterpiece now resides within the National Gallery of Art in Washington D. C. , serving as a testament to John Martin's artistic prowess and our enduring fascination with religious narratives that have shaped civilizations throughout history.
