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
In this painting by Aert de Gelder, we witness a pivotal moment in biblical history - Ahimelech Giving the Sword of Goliath to David. Painted in the 1680s, this oil on canvas print beautifully captures the intense emotions and significance of this scene. The composition centers around two figures: Ahimelech, a priest, and David, who would later become king. Ahimelech is shown handing over the legendary sword of Goliath to David with reverence and solemnity. The size difference between the two men emphasizes their contrasting roles; Ahimelech represents wisdom and guidance while David symbolizes strength and destiny. De Gelder's masterful use of light adds depth to the painting, illuminating both characters' faces as they exchange this powerful artifact. The details are meticulously rendered - from the intricate folds of their garments to every strand of hair - showcasing De Gelder's technical skill. This artwork not only highlights an important event but also explores themes such as trust, faith, and divine intervention. It reminds us that even in times of uncertainty or adversity, there can be unexpected sources of support that guide us towards our purpose. Unframed dimensions measuring 90.2 x 132.1 cm (35 1/2 x 52 in. ) allow for an intimate viewing experience where one can appreciate every brushstroke up close.
