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
The print captures a powerful biblical scene from the 19th century, titled "Then took he him up in his arms, and blessed God". The image depicts Mary and Joseph bringing baby Jesus to the temple 40 days after his birth. Simeon, an elderly man known for his prophecy, blesses them as he holds the infant Christ in his arms. In this moment of divine significance, Simeon utters words of praise: "Lord, now lettest thou thy servant depart in peace, according to thy word". His prophetic declaration foretells that Jesus will be a catalyst for both the fall and rising of many in Israel. The composition is enhanced by architectural elements reminiscent of St Peter's Basilica in Rome. These grand columns serve as a backdrop to this sacred encounter between generations - representing faith passed down through time. J Jenkins skillfully engraved this scene based on Louis de Boullogne the younger's painting from 1715. The black-and-white aesthetic adds depth and solemnity to the image while emphasizing its historical context. This print not only showcases religious devotion but also explores themes of family, fatherhood, and belief. It serves as a visual reminder of the profound impact one child can have on countless lives throughout history.
