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 exquisite print, depicting the Purple Iris (Iris germanica), dates back to the late 16th or early 17th century and is a masterpiece created by the renowned Flemish botanist and artist Anselmus de Boodt, in collaboration with Elias Verhulst. Commissioned by Emperor Rudolf II, this artwork is a testament to the rich cultural and scientific heritage of the Netherlands during the Habsburg period. The image showcases the Purple Iris in stunning detail, with its vibrant hue and elegant, swaying form captured through the use of chalk, ink, and brush. The botanical accuracy of the depiction is a reflection of the advanced knowledge of natural history during this era. The background, adorned with intricate lettering and geometric patterns, adds an artistic flair to the scene. The Purple Iris, a member of the Iridaceae family, is a symbol of royalty and is often associated with the goddess Iris, the messenger of the gods in Greek mythology. This print is a valuable addition to any collection of historic botanical illustrations or art, and is a must-see for those interested in the history of botany, art, and European culture. Originally from Delft, in the southern part of the Netherlands, Anselmus de Boodt was a pioneer in the field of botanical illustration, and his works were highly sought after by collectors and scholars throughout Europe. This print, now housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, is a reminder of the important role the Netherlands played in the development of natural history and the arts during the late Renaissance period.
