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
Alexander the Great: The Sun God of Macedon and Greece (356 BC - 323 BC) This image depicts Alexander III of Macedon, popularly known as Alexander the Great, in the guise of a sun god. Born in Pella, Macedonia, in 356 BC, Alexander was the son of King Philip II and Queen Olympias. Raised under the tutelage of Aristotle, Alexander's military prowess and strategic genius were evident from an early age. At just 20 years old, he ascended to the throne of Macedon following his father's assassination. Over the next 13 years, Alexander would go on to conquer a vast empire that stretched from Greece to Egypt and India, spreading Greek culture and language throughout the ancient world. This representation of Alexander as a sun god is a testament to the awe and reverence in which he was held during his lifetime and beyond. The sun was a powerful symbol of kingship and divinity in ancient Greece, and Alexander's conquests and achievements were seen as bringing light and order to the world. The golden aura surrounding Alexander in this image emphasizes his divine status, while the sun's rays extending from his head symbolize his power and authority. The image also features the inscription 'ALEXANDER' and the dates '323 BC' and '356 BC,' marking the beginning and end of his reign. Alexander's legacy continues to inspire and fascinate historians, scholars, and artists to this day. His conquests opened up new trade routes and cultural exchanges, laying the foundations for the Hellenistic period and shaping the course of Western civilization. This image serves as a powerful reminder of Alexander's enduring impact on history and his status as one of the greatest rulers in human history.
