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 print showcases a remarkable engraving titled "Saint Michael holding scales and a lance, a demon beneath him" from the renowned series Piccoli Santi (Small Saints), created between 1500-1527. Crafted by the talented Italian artist Marcantonio Raimondi during the Renaissance period, this piece is now housed in the prestigious Metropolitan Museum of Art. In this striking image, Saint Michael, depicted as a powerful winged figure, stands tall with his majestic wings spread wide. He holds a set of scales in one hand, symbolizing justice and divine judgment. In his other hand rests an imposing lance, representing his role as God's warrior against evil forces. Beneath Saint Michael lies a menacing demon being trampled underfoot. This depiction signifies the triumph of good over evil and serves as an allegory for spiritual warfare fought within Christianity. The intricate details captured in this engraving showcase Raimondi's exceptional skill as an artist. The play of light and shadow adds depth to each element while emphasizing the dramatic tension between Saint Michael and the demonic presence below. As we gaze upon this timeless artwork, we are reminded of its historical significance within religious artistry. It serves not only as a testament to Raimondi's talent but also invites contemplation on themes such as faith, righteousness, and divine protection that have resonated throughout centuries of Christian tradition.
