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 image showcases a Staff Terminal with the God Ichneumon, believed to date back to the Ptolemaic Period in Ancient Egypt, around 332-30 BCE. The Staff Terminal, made of bronze, is intricately decorated with the image of the God Ichneumon, a deity often depicted as a mongoose or a man with the head of a mongoose. The God Ichneumon was revered for his ability to protect against the venomous snakes that infested the Nile Delta. The statuette's ornate design displays the god in a dynamic pose, striding forward with a determined look on his face, holding a staff in one hand and a cobra in the other. The staff is adorned with intricate architectural elements, including columns, capitals, and other architectural motifs, reflecting the Hellenistic influence on Egyptian art during the Ptolemaic Period. This exquisite artifact is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Ancient Egypt and the complex interplay between Egyptian and Hellenistic artistic traditions. The close-up view of the Staff Terminal allows us to appreciate the fine details of the God Ichneumon's features and the intricate decorative elements of the staff. This magnificent piece is currently housed in the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), adding to its impressive collection of ancient art and artifacts. The Staff Terminal with the God Ichneumon is a must-see for anyone interested in ancient history, Egyptian mythology, or the intersection of different artistic traditions.
