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. 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
This relief depicts a pivotal moment in ancient history: the Battle of Kadesh, fought between the Egyptian Empire under the reign of Pharaoh Ramses II and the Hittite Empire led by King Muwatalli II, in 1274 BC. The scene unfolds at the city of Kadesh, situated on the banks of the Orontes River. Ramses II is prominently displayed in his chariot, ready to engage in combat with the attacking Hittite forces. His charioteer stands steadfastly behind him, holding the reins, while Ramses brandishes a bow and quiver of arrows, prepared to defend his empire. The intricate details of the relief, found in the Ramesseum in the Necropolis of Thebes, showcase the military prowess and artistic skill of the 13th century, during the 19th Dynasty of Egypt's New Kingdom. The Battle of Kadesh is considered a significant turning point in Egyptian history, as Ramses II managed to repel the Hittite invasion, securing his empire's borders and cementing his legacy as a great pharaoh.
