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.

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 colorized print showcases Sir Christopher Wren, the renowned English architect, circa 1680. Known for his remarkable contributions to London's architectural landscape, Wren played a pivotal role in rebuilding fifty-one churches in the City of London following the devastating Great Fire of 1666. His most iconic creation was undoubtedly St Paul's Cathedral, which he reconstructed with grandeur and elegance befitting its status as a symbol of resilience and faith. Wren's genius extended beyond religious structures; he also constructed the Royal Hospital at Greenwich and made significant additions to Hampton Court Palace. This portrait captures him in all his glory, donning a wig that was fashionable during the seventeenth century. With an air of confidence and authority, Wren personifies professionalism and expertise. The Print Collector has masterfully colorized this black-and-white engraving, breathing new life into history. The vibrant hues bring out every intricate detail while preserving the essence of this remarkable period. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded not only of Sir Christopher Wren's immense talent but also his lasting impact on British architecture. This print is a testament to both artistic skill and historical significance—a visual tribute to one man's extraordinary vision that continues to inspire generations today.
