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.

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 the heart of Athens, the ancient Greek capital city, stands the majestic statue of Apollo at the Athens Academy. Apollo, the revered god of music, archery, and healing in Greek mythology, is depicted in all his glory in this stunning sculpture. The god is shown holding his iconic lyre, a musical instrument that he is said to have created from the shell of a tortoise. The intricate details of the statue's chiseled features, from the curly locks of hair cascading down his forehead to the delicate folds of his robe, are a testament to the artistic mastery of the ancient Greek sculptors. The Athens Academy, a renowned center for research and higher learning, is an apt location for this magnificent statue. Apollo, as the god of knowledge and wisdom, was often associated with the Muses, the goddesses of the arts and sciences. The god's presence at the academy serves as a constant reminder of the deep-rooted connection between ancient Greek civilization and its rich cultural heritage. Central Greece, specifically Attica, is where the mythology of Apollo and the ancient Greeks unfolded. The history of this region is steeped in myths and legends, making it an essential destination for anyone interested in the classical world. The statue of Apollo at the Athens Academy is not just a work of art but a living testament to the enduring legacy of Greek mythology and the profound impact it continues to have on our contemporary culture. As you stand before this magnificent statue, you can almost hear the strains of Apollo's lyre, resonating through the ages, inviting you to explore the depths of Greek mythology and the wonders of ancient Greece.
