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
In this photo print, we are presented with a masterpiece of classical art: "Apollo Crowning Himself" by the renowned Italian sculptor Antonio Canova. The photograph beautifully captures the intricate details and timeless elegance of this marble sculpture. The image showcases Apollo, the Greek god of music, poetry, and light, in a moment of divine self-recognition. With grace and confidence, he places a laurel wreath upon his own head as if acknowledging his supreme power and artistic genius. The delicate carving brings out every muscle and sinew in Apollo's body, emphasizing his strength and beauty. Canova's skillful craftsmanship is evident in every curve and contour of the sculpture. From Apollo's flowing hair to the folds of drapery cascading down his back, each element is meticulously rendered with precision and finesse. The use of marble adds an ethereal quality to the piece, enhancing its grandeur. This artwork represents not only Canova's mastery but also embodies the ideals of neoclassical art that flourished during this period in Italy. It reflects a revival of interest in ancient Greek mythology while showcasing Canova's ability to capture human emotion through stone. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing print from Liszt Collection, we are transported into a world where gods walk among us - where beauty meets divinity. It serves as a reminder that art has the power to transcend time and inspire awe for generations to come.
